Life is half spent
before we know what it is.
The wise man should avoid
wrath, pride, deceit, greed, hate and delusion.
The greatest of victories is
the victory over oneself.
The
body is yours - but is not you. The body is a garment that you are wearing, a
machine that you are using, a vehicle that you are driving. The body is your
possession. Just as a person does not identify himself as being the shirt he is
wearing, he should also not identify himself with the body that he is
wearing.
Every instant of time is a
pinprick of eternity. All things are insignificant, easily changed, vanishing
away.
Life is a campaign, a brief
staying in a strange region.
Life is a child moving counters
in a game.
We don’t live as we wish, but
as we can.
An unexamined life is not worth
living.
He who does not think that what
he has is more than ample is an unhappy man, even if he is the master of the
whole Word.
Live joyfully with the woman
whom you love the days which God has given you under the sun, for that is your
portion in life.
