Every man’s life ends the same way. It is only the details of how he lived and how he died that distinguish one man from another.
Everything in the universe is within you. Ask all from yourself.
Our doubts are traitors, and make us lose the good we oft might win, by fearing to attempt.
You may delay, but time will not.
Our life is frittered away by detail. Simplify, simplify.
Care about what other people think and you will always be their prisoner.
Sometimes even to live is an act of courage.
Be – don’t try to become.
Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who said it, no matter if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.
The best revenge is to be unlike him who performed the injury.
There is more to life than simply increasing its speed.
There is no passion to be found playing small – in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.
Our life is what our thoughts make it.
When you judge another, you do not define them, you define yourself.
We can never obtain peace in the outer world until we make peace with ourselves.
The soul becomes dyed with the colour of its thoughts.
Act without expectation.
Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.
As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives.
Become who you are.
