The Pleasure Which We Most Rarely Experience

Wealth Consists Not In Having Great Possessions, But In Having Few Wants.

Nothing Great Is Created Suddenly, Any More Than A Bunch Of Grapes Or A Fig.

If You Want To Improve, Be Content To Be Thought Foolish And Stupid With Regard To External Things. Don't Wish To Be Thought To Know Anything; And Even If You Appear To Be Somebody Important To Others, Distrust Yourself. For, It Is Difficult To Both Keep Your Faculty Of Choice In A State Conformable To Nature, And At The Same Time Acquire External Things. But While You Are Careful About The One, You Must Of Necessity Neglect The Other

Whoever Then Wishes To Be Free, Let Him Neither Wish For Anything Nor Avoid Anything Which Depends On Others: If He Does Not Observe This Rule, He Must Be A Slave.

Progress Is Not Achieved By Luck Or Accident, But By Working On Yourself Daily.
