Launch Your Boat, Blessed Youth,

The Things You Really Need Are Few And Easy To Come By; But The Things You Can Imagine You Need Are Infinite, And You Will Never Be Satisfied.

If You Wish To Make Pythocles Rich, Do Not Add To His Store Of Money, But Subtract From His Desires.

Justice Has No Independent Existence; It Results From Mutual Contracts, And Establishes Itself Wherever There Is A Mutual Engagement To Guard Against Doing Or Sustaining Mutual Injury.

Accustom Yourself To Believe That Death Is Nothing To Us, For Good And Evil Imply Awareness, And Death Is The Privation Of All Awareness; Therefore A Right Understanding That Death Is Nothing To Us Makes The Mortality Of Life Enjoyable, Not By Adding To Life An Unlimited Time, But By Taking Away The Yearning After Immortality. For Life Has No Terror; For Those Who Thoroughly Apprehend That There Are No Terrors For Them In Ceasing To Live.
