“Our life is what our thoughts make it.”

Think of yourself as dead. You have lived your life. Now, take what is left and live it properly.

The best revenge is to be unlike him who performed the injury.

Never let the future disturb you. You will meet it, if you have to, with the same weapons of reason which today arm you against the present.

Do not act as if you were going to live ten thousand years. Death hangs over you.

Look within. Within is the fountain of good, and it will ever bubble up, if thou wilt ever dig.

You have power over your mind — not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.
