True happiness is to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence upon the future, not to amuse ourselves with either hopes or fears but to rest satisfied with what we have, which is sufficient, for he that is so wants nothing. The greatest blessings of mankind are within us and within our reach. A wise man is content with his lot, whatever it may be, without wishing for what he has not.

No man was ever wise by chance.

True happinessis to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence upon de future.

Difficulties strengthen the mind, as labor does the body.

We suffer more often in imagination than in reality.

Health is the soul that animates al the enjoyments of life, which fade and are tasteless without it.

If you really want to escape the things that harass you, what you’re needing is not to be in a different place but to be a different person.

Not how long, but how well you have lived is the main thing.

Every night before going to sleep, we must ask ourselves:

What weakness did I overcome today?
What virtue did I acquire?

As long as you live, keep learning how to live.

One of the most beautiful qualities of true friendship is to understand and to be understood.

While we are postponing, life speeds by.
