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

The longer I live, the more uninformed I feel.

Information is not knowledge.

Success is not about seeking constant external comparison; it's about embracing your own unique journey and celebrating the progress you make along the way.

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

Kings and cabbages go back to compost, but good deeds stay green forever.

Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none.
