It is not that we have so little time but that we lose so much. ... The life we receive is not short but we make it so; we are not ill provided but use what we have wastefully.
What need is there to weep over parts of life? The whole of it calls for tears.
Until we have begun to go without them, we fail to realize how unnecessary many things are. We've been using them not because we needed them but because we had them.
Associate with people who are likely to improve you.
No man was ever wise by chance.
If you really want to escape the things that harass you, what you’re needing is not to be in a different place but to be a different person.
Until we have begun to go without them, we fail to realize how unnecessary many things are. We've been using them not because we needed them but because we had them.
Life is like a play: it's not the length, but the excellence of the acting that matters.
Wealth is the slave of a wise man. The master of a fool.
Putting things off is the biggest waste of life: it snatches away each day as it comes, and denies us the present by promising the future. The greatest obstacle to living is expectancy, which hangs upon tomorrow, and loses today. You are arranging what lies in Fortune's control, and abandoning what lies in yours. What are you looking at? To what goal are you straining? The whole future lies in uncertainty: live immediately.
