By wisdom is the gift of knowledge displayed; by knowledge are high things obtained. +
Caution can never incur disgrace; imbecility can never bring honour with it. +
Craft has the best of men; boldness conquers cities; the first is despised, the last admired. +
Cut down the whole forest of lust, not the tree. When thou hast cut down every tree and every shrub, then thou wilt be free. +
Cut out the love of self, like an autumn lotus, with thy hand! Cherish the road of peace. +
Daily practical wisdom consists of four things: – To know the root of Truth, the branches of Truth, the limit of Truth, and the opposite of Truth. +
Days end with sunset, nights with the rising of the sun; the end of pleasure is ever grief, the end of grief ever pleasure. +

Death has no power th' immortal soul to slay,<br>
That, when its present body turns to clay<br>
Seeks a fresh home, and with unlessened might<br>
Inspires another frame with life and light.<br>
So I myself (well I the past recall),<br>
When the fierce Greeks begirt Troy's holy wall,<br>
Was brave Euphorbus: and in conflict drear<br>
Poured forth my blood beneath Atrides' spear.<br>
The shield this arm did bear I lately saw<br>
In Juno's shrine, a trophy of that war. +
Death is a black camel that kneels at everybody's door. Death is a friend and a deliverer. +
Depend not upon external supports, nor beg your tranquillity of another. In a word, never throw away your legs to stand upon crutches. +
Devotion and clear vision are not his who eats too much, nor his who eats not at all; not his who sleeps too much, nor his who is too awake. +
Do but return to the principles of wisdom, and those who take you now for a monkey or a wild beast will make a god of you. +
Do not act as if you had ten thousand years to throw away. Death stands at your elbow. Be good for something, while you live, and it is in your power. +
Do not let accidents disturb, or outward objects engross your thoughts; but keep your mind quiet and disengaged, to be ready to learn something good. +
Do not make a wicked man thy companion, or act on the advice of a fool. +
Do not run riot; keep your intentions honest, and your convictions sure. +
Do not speak harshly to anybody; those who are so spoken to will answer thee in the same way. +
Do not suppose you are hurt, and your complaint ceases. Cease your complaint, and you are not hurt. +
Eat and drink with your friends, but do not trade with them. +
