We Are Not So Easily

Nature Intended You To Be The Fountain-spring Of Cheerfulness And Social Life, And Not The Mountain Of Despair And Melancholy.

Selfishness, When It Is Punished By The World, Is Mostly Punished Because It Is Connected With Egotism.

Always Win Fools First. They Talk Much, And What They Have Once Uttered They Will Stick To; Whereas There Is Always Time, Up To The Last Moment, To Bring Before A Wise Man Arguments That May Entirely Change His Opinion.

It Has Always Appeared To Me, That There Is So Much To Be Done In This World, That All Self-inflicted Suffering Which Cannot Be Turned To Good Account For Others, Is A Loss - A Loss, If You May So Express It, To The Spiritual World.

We Are Pleased With One Who Instantly Assents To Our Opinions, But We Love A Proselyte.
