Persuade thyself that imperfection and inconvenience are the natural lot of mortals, and there will be no room for discontent, neither for despair Picture Quote #1

Conquer thyself, till thou has done this, thou art but a slave; for it is almost as well to be subjected to another’s appetite as to thine own Picture Quote #1

To maintain an opinion because it is thine, and not because it is true, is to prefer thyself above the truth Picture Quote #1

Happy thou that learnest from another’s griefs, not to subject thyself to the same Picture Quote #1

Sometimes, perhaps, thou hearest another pray with much freedom and fluency, whilst thou canst hardly get out a few broken words. Hence thou art ready to accuse thyself and admire him, as if the gilding of the key made it open the door the better Picture Quote #1

It is past all question, and agreed on by all sides, that no religion will save a man who is not serious, sincere, and diligent in it. If thou be of the truest religion in the world, and are not true thyself to that religion, the religion is good, but it is none of thine Picture Quote #1

Love thy neighbor as thyself because you are your neighbor. It is illusion that makes you think that your neighbor is someone other than yourself Picture Quote #1

Scorn also to depress thy competitor by any dishonest or unworthy method; strive to raise thyself above him only by excelling him; so shall thy contest for superiority be crowned with honour, if not with success Picture Quote #1

Wherever... thou shalt be, pray secretly within thyself. If thou shalt be far from a house of prayer, give not thyself trouble to seek for one, for thou thyself art a sanctuary designed for prayer. If thou shalt be in bed, or in any other place, pray there; thy temple is there Picture Quote #1

Treat others as thou wouldst be treated. What thou likest not for thyself, dispense not to others Picture Quote #1

For self is the lord of self, self is the refuge of self; therefore curb thyself as the merchant curbs a good horse Picture Quote #1

Knowest thou not the beauty of thine own face? Quit this temper that leads thee to war with thyself Picture Quote #1

Think not so much of what thou hast not as of what thou hast: but of the things which thou hast, select the best, and then reflect how eagerly they would have been sought, if thou hadst them not. At the same time, however, take care that thou dost not, through being so pleased with them, accustom thyself to overvalue them, so as to be disturbed if ever thou shouldst not have them Picture Quote #1

As thou thyself art a component part of a social system, so let every act of thine be a component part of social life. Whatever act of thine that has no reference, either immediately or remotely, to a social end, this tears asunder thy life, and does not allow it to be one, and it is of the nature of a mutiny, just as when in a popular assembly a man acting by himself stands apart from the general agreement Picture Quote #1

When thou art offended at any man’s fault, forthwith turn to thyself and reflect in what manner thou doest error thyself... For by attending to this thou wilt quickly forget thy anger, if this consideration is also added, that the man is compelled; for what else could he do? or, if thou art able, take away from him the compulsion Picture Quote #1

Consider thyself to be dead, and to have completed thy life up to the present time; and live according to nature the remainder which is allowed thee Picture Quote #1

Son, heed my instruction, and apply thyself to know women; let thine eyes observe her when she is with another, for what she doeth with him, she will do with thee, also Picture Quote #1

Monarch, thou wishest to cover thyself with glory; be the first to submit to the laws of thy empire Picture Quote #1

Why should any of these things that happen externally distract thee? Give thyself leisure to learn some good thing: cease roving to and fro Picture Quote #1

Look well into thyself; there is a source of strength which will always spring up if thou wilt always look Picture Quote #1

If thou marry beauty, thou bindest thyself all thy life for that which, perchance, will neither last nor please thee one year Picture Quote #1

Above the cloud with its shadow is the star with its light. Above all things reverence thyself Picture Quote #1

And thou wilt give thyself relief, if thou doest every act of thy life as if it were the last Picture Quote #1

When thou findest thyself scorning another, look then at thy own heart and laugh at thy folly Picture Quote #1
