The Lot Assigned To Every Man Is

If You Are Distressed By Something, It Is Due To Your Own Estimate Of It; And You Have The Power To Change It At Will.

If You Are Distressed By Anything External, The Pain Is Not Due To The Thing Itself, But To Your Estimate Of It; And This You Have The Power To Revoke At Any Moment.

Severally On The Occasion Of Everything That Thou Doest, Pause And Ask Thyself, If Death Is A Dreadful Thing Because It Deprives Thee Of This.

What Springs From Earth Dissolves To Earth Again, And Heaven-born Things Fly To Their Native Seat.

All Men Are Made One For Another: Either Then Teach Them Better Or Bear With Them.
