Men can be divided into two groups: one that goes ahead and achieves something, and the one that comes after and criticizes. |
Not how long, but how well you have lived is the main thing. |
The greatest blessings of mankind are within us and within our reach. A wise man is content with his lot, whatever it may be, without wishing for what he has not. |

To wish to be well is a part of becoming well. |
Take away ambition and vanity, and where will be your heroes and patriots? |
No evil propensity of the human heart is so powerful that it may not be subdued by discipline. |
