“Though sages may pour out their wisdom's treasure, there is no sterner moralist then Pleasure.”
“We may think we live for wisdom, but in fact we're living for the the pleasure wisdom brings us.”
“Books are keys to wisdom's treasure;Books are gates to lands of pleasure;Books are paths that upward lead;Books are friends. Come, let us read.”
“Foolishness pours out of an open mouth....but wisdom sneaks in through the ears....”
“There is no treasure but Truth, there is no Truth but Wisdom. There is no Wisdom, but from Learning, and Learning is won by the devotion of hours, years, days and nights to the works of Nature and the Treasures of Truth that others have gathered.”
“The inner is foundation of the outerThe still is master of the restlessThe Sage travels all dayyet never leaves his inner treasure”
