Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.

Bear in mind that the measure of a man is the worth of the things he cares about.

You have to assemble your life yourself - action by action.

Dwell on the beauty of life. Watch the stars, and see yourself running with them.

Be tolerant of others and strict with yourself.

Past and future have no power over you. Just the present - and even that can be minimized.

The best revenge is not to be like your enemy.

Waste no more time arguing what a good man should be. Be one.

Nothing that goes on in anyone else's mind can harm you.

The secret of all victory lies in the organization of the non-obvious.

Give yourself a gift: the present moment.

What we do in life ripples in eternity.

Adapt yourself to the life you have been given; and truly love the people with whom destiny has surrounded you.

It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live.

Whoever values peace of mind and the health of the soul will live the best of all possible lives.

Our anger and annoyance are more detrimental to us than the things themselves that anger or annoy us.

Death smiles at us all, all a man can do is smile back.

Do not be wise in words - be wise in deeds.

What does not benefit the hive is no benefit to the bee.
