“You must remember that no one lives a life free from pain and suffering.”

The oaths of a woman I inscribe on water.

A mind at peace does not engender wars.

It is a base thing for a man among the people not to obey those in command. Never in a state can the laws be well administered when fear does not stand firm.

Nobody likes the bringer of bad news.

Our happiness depends on wisdom all the way.

I have no desire to suffer twice, in reality and then in retrospect.

Time, which sees all things, has found you out.

Do nothing secretly; for Time sees and hears all things, and discloses all.

There is a point beyond which even justice becomes unjust.

Laziness is the mother of all evils.

You don’t know what kind of day you will have, until evening.

Knowledge must come through action.

Each one of us must live the life God gives him; it cannot be shirked.

In season, all is good.

Dark, dark! The horror of darkness, like a shroud, wraps me and bears me on through mist and cloud.

Every man can see things far off but is blind to what is near.

Let’s keep our world safe and free from violence.

I’m a free spirit – unfortunately for some.

Secure property in hand leads to peace in mind.

The free exploring mind of the individual human is the most valuable thing in the world.

This I must fight against: any idea, religion, or government which limits or destroys the individual.

Only when the mind is still, tranquil, not expecting or grasping or resisting a single thing, is it possible to see what is true. It is the truth that liberates, not your effort to be free.

If you’re going to be free! You’re going to have to free YOURSELF!

I imagine therefore I belong and am free.
