This time, like all time, is a very good one but if we know what to do with it.
Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience.
For every minute you are angry you lose sixty seconds of happiness.
No great man ever complains of want of opportunity.
Beauty is the virtue of the body as virtue is the beauty of the soul.
Life is a festival only to the wise.
A man’s wife has more power over him than the state has.
No change of circumstances can repair a defect of character.
Nature is a mutable cloud which is always and never the same.
We are always getting ready to live but never living.
