My true self contains every possibility.
What essence is to generation, that truth is to belief.
He who is of a calm and happy nature, will hardly feel the pressure of age
The most important part of education is proper training in the nursery.
'But the man who is ready to taste every form of knowledge, is glad to learn and never satisfied - he's the man who deserves to be called a philosopher, isn't he?'
Hardly any human being is capable of pursuing two professions or two arts rightly.
The whole life of the philosopher is a preparation for death.
Spring goeth all in white, Crowned with milk-white may: In fleecy flocks of light O'er heaven the white clouds stray.
For any CEO that is skeptical at all: you have to create a social enterprise today!
Even as a child I was fascinated by death, not in a spiritual sense, but in an aesthetic one. A hamster or guinea pig would pass away, and, after burying the body, I'd dig it back up: over and over, until all that remained was a shoddy pelt. It earned me a certain reputation, especially when I moved on to other people's pets. "Igor," they called me. "Wicked, spooky. " But I think my interest was actually fairly common, at least among adolescent boys. At that age, death is something that happens only to animals and grandparents, and studying it is like a science project.
Like kindness, a smile from the heart not only purifies the human mind but also illumines the human heart.
