Contentment Comes Not So Much From Great Wealth As From Few Wants.

The Soul That Companies With Virtue Is Like An Ever-flowing Source. It Is A Pure, Clear, And Wholesome Draught, Sweet, Rich And Generous Of Its Store, That Injures Not, Neither Destroys.

When Men Are Unhappy, They Do Not Imagine They Can Ever Cease To Be So; And When Some Calamity Has Fallen On Them, They Do Not See How They Can Get Rid Of It. Nevertheless, Both Arrive; And The Gods Have Ordered It So, In The End Men Seek It From The Gods

Man Is Not Fully Free Unless He Is Master Of Himself.

Freedom And Happiness Are Won By Disregarding Things That Lie Beyond Our Control.
