If you are not happy in your work, you are a slave.

Do not let other people decide what you are to be. Be what you feel you want to be.

Wisdom is the power to perceive the best ends to aim at and the best means for reaching those ends.

First, you believe that there is one intelligent substance, from which all things proceed. Second, you believe that this substance gives you everything you desire. And third, you relate yourself to it by a feeling of deep and profound gratitude.

You must lay aside your greed; have no unworthy motive in your desire to become rich and powerful. It is legitimate and right to desire riches, if you want them for the sake of your soul, but not if you desire them for the lists of the flesh.

Intellect helps us to see the best means and manner of doing the right thing, but intellect never shows us the right thing.

Wisdom is the essential basis of greatness.
