Do not be embarrassed by your mistakes. Nothing can teach us better than our understanding of them. This is one of the best ways of self-education.

Everything in moderation, including moderation.

The intellect is always fooled by the heart.

Our doubts are traitors and make us lose the good we often might win, by fearing to attempt.

The true warriors in this world are those who endure suffering silently, hold their heads high, and smile through the pain.

We can live without religion and meditation, but we cannot survive without human affection.

Better to die on one's feet than to live on one's knees.
