What Disturbs And Alarms Man Are Not

Wish That Everything Should Come About Just As It Does.

There Is Only One Thing For Which God Has Sent Me Into The World, And That Is To Develop Every Kind Of Virtue Or Strength, And There Is Nothing In All The World That I Cannot Use For This Purpose.

A Ship Should Not Be Held By A Single Anchor; Neither Should Life Depend Upon A Single Hope.

I Am Not Eternity, But A Man; A Part Of The Whole, As An Hour Is Of The Day.

We Need To Regularly Stop And Take Stock; To Sit Down And Determine Within Ourselves Which Things Are Worth Valuing And Which Things Are Not; Which Risks Are Worth The Cost And Which Are Not. Even The Most Confusing Or Hurtful Aspects Of Life Can Be Made More Tolerable By Clear Seeing And By Choice.
