One Must Not Criticize That Which Is

Being Brilliant Is No Great Feat If You Respect Nothing.

Piety Is Not An End, But A Means: A Means Of Attaining The Highest Culture By The Purest Tranquility Of Soul. Hence It May Be Observed That Those Who Set Up Piety As An End And Object Are Mostly Hypocrites.

But When All Is Said, The Greatest Art Is To Limit And Isolate Oneself.

He Who Is Wise Puts Aside All Claims Which May Dissipate His Attention, And Confining Himself To One Branch Excels In That.

The Experiences Show Us Just As We Are; They Make Us See Our Own Defects.
