Knowledge is one of your most excellent defenses.

Be so kind in life that when people meet you, they believe you were created by God, not shaped by society.

Let it offend you that someone else could be handed your days and turn them into something greater.

We know what we are, but not what we may be.

You will be forgotten either way. So live in such a manner that, while you remain, you belong to yourself.

People will kill you over time. And how they'll kill you is with tiny, harmless phrases like 'be realistic'.

Lock yourself in a room and study until you collapse, true brilliance comes from obsession!

They insulted me in seventy lines
and only the spelling mistakes
bothered me.

Never outshine the master. Let their ego feed, while you strengthen in silence.

The slave begins by demanding justice and ends up wearing the crown.

If you hate a person, then you are
defeated by them.

Don't rush. Even delayed trains still
reach their station.

The tongue has no bones, but it is strong enough to break a heart.

Do not be sorry. Be better.

You can knock on a deaf man's door forever.

The truth is like a lion; you don't have to defend it. Let it loose: it will defend itself.

For what shall it profit a man if he shall gain the whole world but lose his own soul.

Instead of fighting the world, kill your ego.

If you forgive the fox for stealing your chickens, he will take your sheep.

Just because it has been normalized by society doesn't mean it's right.

The cow drinks water, and it turns to milk; the snake drinks water, and it turns to poison!
