“Without feelings of respect, what is there to distinguish men from beasts?”

Roads were made for journeys not destinations

To be wronged is nothing, unless you continue to remember it.

Silence is a true friend who never betrays.

It is more shameful to distrust our friends than to be deceived by them.

Settle one difficulty, and you keep a hundred away.

Your life is what your thoughts make it.

If you are the smartest person in the room, then you are in the wrong room.

The superior man understands what is right; the inferior man understands what will sell.

A youth is to be regarded with respect. How do we know that his future will not be equal to our present?

They must often change who would remain constant in happiness and wisdom.

The gem cannot be polished without friction, nor man perfected without trials.

A common man marvels at uncommon things. A wise man marvels at the commonplace.

If you don’t want to do something,don’t impose on others.

Consideration for others is the basis of a good life, a good society.

If you look into your own heart, and you find nothing wrong there, what is there to worry about? What is there to fear?

Learning without thought is labour lost; thought without learning is perilous.
