It is not death we fear but the thought of it.
Fire is the test of gold adversity of strong men.
Whom they have injured they also hate.
Let us be brave in the face of adversity.
It is not manly to turn one's back on fortune.
Greed's worst point is its ingratitude.
Malice drinks one-half of its own poison.
There is nothing so bitter that a patient mind cannot find some solace for it.
A man's as miserable as he thinks he is.
If you wish to fear nothing consider that everything is to be feared.
What must be shall be and that which is a necessity to him that struggles is little more than choice to him that is willing.
If we let things terrify us life will not be worth living.
Nothing is ours except time.
One should count each day a separate life.
What does reason demand of a man? A very easy thing-to live in accord with his own nature.
Add each day something to fortify you against poverty and death.
For the great benefits of our being- our life health and reason-we look upon ourselves.
Knowledge of sin is the beginning of salvation.
No man will swim ashore and take his baggage with him.
The great soul surrenders itself to fate.
