Never esteem anything as of advantage to you that will make you break your word or lose your self-respect.
Forget injuries, never forget kindnesses.
What makes the engine go? Desire, desire, desire.
All movements go too far.
We require from buildings two kinds of goodness: first, the doing their practical duty well: then that they be graceful and pleasing in doing it.
By learning to discover and value our ordinariness, we nurture a friendliness toward ourselves and the world that is the essence of a healthy soul.
If you really do put a small value upon yourself, rest assured that the world will not raise your price.
