Sooner or later, we've got to work at it, no matter how many other careers we've had or wanted.
Never let the demands of tomorrow interfere with the pleasures and excitement of today.
We should every night call ourselves to an account; What infirmity have I mastered today? What passions opposed? What temptation resisted? What virtue acquired? Our vices will abort of themselves if they be brought every day to the shrift.
Each body has its art...
They can conquer who believe they can.
Work saves us from three great evils: boredom, vice and need.
Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.
