Wherever you go, you will always bear yourself about with you, and so you will always find yourself.

One who views thing as they are in reality, and not as they are said or thought to be, is truly wise, taught by God rather than by other persons

If you wish to live in peace and harmony with others, you must learn to discipline yourself in many ways.

Occasions of adversity best discover how great virtue or strength each one hath. For occasions do not make a man frail, but they show what he is.

Pass no rash condemnation on other peoples words or actions.

What difference does it make to you what someone else becomes, or says, or does? You do not need to answer for others, only for yourself.

We would willingly have others perfect, and yet we amend not our own faults. We would have others severely corrected and will not be corrected ourselves. The large liberty of others displeases us, and yet we will not have our own desires denied us. We will have others kept under by strict laws, but in no sort will ourselves be restrained. And thus it appears how seldom we weigh our neighbor in the same balance with ourselves.
