Life is short. Do not forget about the most important things in our life, living for other people and doing good for them.

---

Waste no more time arguing what a good man should be. Be one.

---

Most of what we say and do is not essential. If you can eliminate it, you'll have more time, and more tranquillity. Ask yourself at every moment, 'Is this necessary?'

---

Adapt yourself to the life you have been given; and truly love the people with whom destiny has surrounded you.

---

Imagine you were now dead, or had not lived before his moment. Now view the rest of your life as a bonus.

---

The first rule is to keep an untroubled spirit. The second is to look things in the face and know them for what they are.

---

What we do in life ripples in eternity.

---

There is but one thing of real value - to cultivate truth and justice, and to live without anger in the midst of lying and unjust men.

---

If you are pained by any external thing, it is not this thing that disturbs you, but your own judgment about it. It is in your power to erase this judgment about it. If anything in your own nature gives you pain, you are who hinders you from correcting your opinion.

---

Do not be wise in words - be wise in deeds.
