Poor Mind, From The Senses

One Great Difference Between A Wise Man And A Fool Is, The Former Only Wishes For What He May Possibly Obtain; The Latter Desires Impossibilities.

Poverty In A Democracy Is As Much To Be Preferred To What Is Called Prosperity Under Despots, As Freedom Is To Slavery.

The Animal Needing Something Knows How Much It Needs, The Man Does Not.

By Convention Sweet Is Sweet, By Convention Bitter Is Bitter, By Convention Hot Is Hot, By Convention Cold Is Cold, By Convention Color Is Color. But In Reality There Are Atoms And The Void. That Is, The Objects Of Sense Are Supposed To Be Real And It Is Customary To Regard Them As Such, But In Truth They Are Not. Only The Atoms And The Void Are Real.

The Man Enslaved To Wealth Can Never Be Honest.
