March on. Do not tarry. To go forward is to move toward perfection. March on, and fear not the thorns, or the sharp stones on life's path.

Life consists in what a man is thinking of all day.

It is normal to give away a little of one's life in order not to lose it all.

A life of leisure and a life of laziness are two things. There will be sleeping enough in the grave.

The happiness of this life depends less on what befalls you than the way in which you take it.

If you love life, don't waste time, for time is what life is made up of.

Don't go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first.

Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life define yourself.

Good friends, good books and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life.

Life is like a trumpet - if you don't put anything into it, you don't get anything out of it.
