A system of morality that is based on relative emotional values is a mere illusion, a thoroughly vulgar conception that has nothing sound in it and nothing true.

Go wherever the facts lead.

The examined life is the only life worth living.

I call that man idle who might be better employed.

Be as you wish to seem.

Be the kind of person that you want people to think you are.

True wisdom comes to each of us when we realize how little we understand about life, ourselves, and the world around us.
