Nowhere Can Man Find A Quieter Or More Untroubled

“But I need solitude--which is to say, recovery, return to myself, the breath of a free, light, playful air.”

To live happily is an inward power of the soul.

No one can live happily who has regard to himself alone

If a man takes no thought about what is distant, he will find sorrow near at hand.

The wise man is neither raised up by prosperity nor cast down by adversity

“Man is an end in himself.”
