The happiness of a man in this life does not consist in the absence but in the mastery of his passions.

How far that little candle throws its beams! So shines a good deed in a naughty world.

Nothing is so strong as gentleness,

All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy.

I've never met an animal I didn't like, and I can't say the same thing about people.

Your ability to maintain a growth mindset and embrace a lifelong love of learning keeps you adaptable and opens doors to new opportunities for success.

The greatest part of our happiness depends on our dispositions, not our circumstances.
