...know You Not That You Are My

So, Preferring Death To Capture, I Accomplished The Most Astonishing Deeds, And Which, More Then Once, Showed Me That The Too Great Care We Take Of Our Bodies Is The Only Obstacle To The Sucess Of Those Projects Which Require Rapid Decision, And Vigorous And Determined Execution. In Reality, When You Have Once Devoted Your Life To Your Enterprises, You Are No Longer The Equal Of Other Men, Or, Rather, Other Men Are No Longer Your Equals, And Whosoever Has Taken This Resolution, Feels His Strength And Resources Doubled.

There Is Neither Happiness Nor Unhappiness In This World; There Is Only The Comparison Of One State With Another. Only A Man Who Has Felt Ultimate Despair Is Capable Of Feeling Ultimate Bliss. It Is Necessary To Have Wished For Death In Order To Know How Good It Is To Live.....the Sum Of All Human Wisdom Will Be Contained In These Two Words: Wait And Hope.

I Know What Happiness And What Despair Are, And I Never Make A Jest Of Such Feelings. Take It, Then, But In Exchange —

Hatred Is Blind; Rage Carries You Away; And He Who Pours Out Vengeance Runs The Risk Of Tasting A Bitter Draught.

I Am Not Proud, But I Am Happy; And Happiness Blinds, I Think, More Than Pride.
