To win one's joy through struggle is better than to yield to melancholy.

It is better to be hated for what you are than loved for what you are not.

We live counterfeit lives in order to resemble the idea we first had of ourselves.

Oh would that my mind could let fall its dead ideas as the tree does its withered leaves!

Our judgements about things vary according to the time left us to live -that we think is left us to live.

Everything has been said before but since nobody listens we have to keep going back and beginning all over again.

If one could recover the uncompromising spirit of one's youth one's greatest indignation would be for what one has become.

It is easier to lead men to combat stirring up their passion than to restrain them and direct them toward the patient labors of peace.

One should want only one thing and want it constantly. Then one is sure of getting it. But I desire everything and consequently get nothing.

Through loyalty to the past our mind refuses to realize that tomorrow's joy is possible only if today's makes way for it; that each wave owes the beauty of its line only to the withdrawal of the preceding one.

In order to be utterly happy the only thing necessary is to refrain from comparing this moment with other moments in the past which I often did not fully enjoy because I was comparing them with other moments of the future.

What another would have done as well as you do not do it. What another would have said as well as you do not say it. What another would have written as well do not write it. Be faithful to that which exists nowhere but in yourself- and thus make yourself indispensable.
