Do every act of your life as if it were your last.
Each day provides its own gifts.
Accept the things to which fate binds you, and love the people with whom fate brings you together, but do so with all your heart.
Despise not death, but welcome it, for nature wills it like all else.
Everything that exists is in a manner the seed of that which will be.
Begin - to begin is half the work, let half still remain; again begin this, and thou wilt have finished.
Everything that happens happens as it should, and if you observe carefully, you will find this to be so.
Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth.
Execute every act of thy life as though it were thy last.
Forward, as occasion offers. Never look round to see whether any shall note it... Be satisfied with success in even the smallest matter, and think that even such a result is no trifle.
He who lives in harmony with himself lives in harmony with the universe.
A noble man compares and estimates himself by an idea which is higher than himself; and a mean man, by one lower than himself. The one produces aspiration; the other ambition, which is the way in which a vulgar man aspires.
Death, like birth, is a secret of Nature.
And thou wilt give thyself relief, if thou doest every act of thy life as if it were the last.
Confine yourself to the present.
