It is not that we have so little time but that we lose so much. … The life we receive is not short but we make it so; we are not ill provided but use what we have wastefully.

A wise man is content with his lot, whatever it may be, without wishing for what he has not.

Fate leads the willing, and drags along the reluctant.

If a man knows not to which port he sails, no wind is favorable.

There is no easy way from the earth to the stars.

You act like mortals in all that you fear, and like immortals in all that you desire.

We suffer more often in imagination than in reality.

A gem cannot be polished without friction, nor a man perfected without trials.

Begin at once to live, and count each separate day as a separate life.

We are more often frightened than hurt; and we suffer more from imagination than from reality.

The whole future lies in uncertainty: live immediately.

The mind that is anxious about future events is miserable.

Sometimes even to live is an act of courage.

While we wait for life, life passes.

The greatest remedy for anger is delay.

He who is brave is free.

He suffers more than necessary, who suffers before it is necessary.

The whole future lies in uncertainty: live immediately.

Ignorance is the cause of fear.

Show me a man who isn’t a slave; one who is a slave to sex, another to money, another to ambition; all are slaves to hope or fear.

The things you run from are inside you.

Only time can heal what reason cannot.

To wish to be well is a part of becoming well.

But life is very short and anxious for those who forget the past, neglect the present, and fear the future.

All cruelty springs from weakness.

They lose the day in expectation of the night, and the night in fear of the dawn.

The greatest wealth is a poverty of desires.

Joy comes to us from those whom we love, even when they are absent.

Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity.

We are more often frightened than hurt; and we suffer more from imagination than from reality.

Life, if well lived, is long enough.

We should always allow some time to elapse, for time discloses the truth.

It does not matter what you bear, but how you bear it.

You should keep learning…to the end of your life.
