Never Say That I Have Taken It,

Of All The Things Which Wisdom Provides To Make Us Entirely Happy, Much The Greatest Is The Possession Of Friendship.

Empty Is The Argument Of The Philosopher Which Does Not Relieve Any Human Suffering.

Injustice Is Not Evil In Itself, But Only In The Fear And Apprehension That One Will Not Escape Those Who Have Been Set Up To Punish The Offense.

The Greater The Difficulty The More Glory In Surmounting It, And The Loss Of False Joys Secures To Us A Much Better Possession Of Real Ones.

Accustom Yourself To Believe That Death Is Nothing To Us, For Good And Evil Imply Awareness, And Death Is The Privation Of All Awareness; Therefore A Right Understanding That Death Is Nothing To Us Makes The Mortality Of Life Enjoyable, Not By Adding To Life An Unlimited Time, But By Taking Away The Yearning After Immortality. For Life Has No Terror; For Those Who Thoroughly Apprehend That There Are No Terrors For Them In Ceasing To Live.
