Wisdom is a treasure, the key whereof is never lost.
Subdue your appetites, my dears, and you've conquered human nature.
Wise sayings often fall on barren ground; but a kind word is never thrown away.
Instinct is untaught ability.
A danger foreseen is half avoided.
If you don't stand for something you will fall for anything.
In dwelling, live close to the ground. In thinking, keep to the simple. ln conflict, be fair and generous. In governing, don't try to control. In work do what you enjoy. In family life, be completely present.
No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.
The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.
When we don't know who to hate, we hate ourselves.
