The Greatest Part Of What We Say

To A Rational Being It Is The Same Thing To Act According To Nature And According To Reason.

Say To Yourself In The Early Morning: I Shall Meet Today Ungrateful, Violent, Treacherous, Envious, Uncharitable Men. All Of These Things Have Come Upon Them Through Ignorance Of Real Good And Ill... I Can Neither Be Harmed By Any Of Them, For No Man Will Involve Me In Wrong, Nor Can I Be Angry With My Kinsman Or Hate Him; For We Have Come Into The World To Work Together.

In Man's Life, Time Is But A Moment; Being, A Flux; Sense Is Dim; The Material Frame Corruptible; Soul, An Eddy Of Breath; Fortune A Thing Inscrutable, And Fame Precarious.

I Cannot Comprehend How Any Man Can Want Anything But The Truth.

Failing To Understand The Workings Of One's Own Mind Is Bound To Lead To Unhappiness.
