- Guard well within yourself that treasure, kindness. Know how to give without hesitation, how to lose without regret, how to acquire without meanness.
- Happiness lies in the consciousness we have of it.
- On strategy: You live. No use asking whether life will bring you pleasure or unhappiness, whether it will prove a blessing or a curse. Who could answer these questions? You live, you breathe.
- On growth: One changes from day to day...every few years one becomes a new being.
- On time: As soon as life becomes bearable we stop analyzing it. A tranquil day is spoiled by being examined.
- On imagination: Genius, whether locked up in a cell or roaming at large, is always solitary.
