No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.
To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue.
Your work is to discover your work and then with all your heart to give yourself to it. That’s the mark of a true professional.
Health is the greatest gift, contentment the greatest wealth, faithfulness the best relationship… To keep the body in good health is a duty… otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear.
There are ways from light into darkness and from darkness into light. There are ways, also, from the gloom into deeper darkness, and from the dawn into brighter light. The wise man will use the light he has to receive more light. He will constantly advance in the knowledge of truth.
Do not dwell in the past; do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
I do not believe in a fate that falls on men however they act; but I do believe in a fate that falls on them unless they act.
We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world.
