“Jealousy is still an incurable virus, that has neither a vaccine nor a treatment.”

“A successful marriage is coalition governance that has many compromises and sacrifices.”

“I cannot convince you if your thinking cap is inside out?”

“Arguing for the sake of arguing is not a bad habit, it is a chronic disease”.”

“Unhappy am I because this has happened to me.- Not so, but happy am I, though this has happened to me, because I continue free from pain, neither crushed by the present nor fearing the future.”

“Live out your life in truth and justice, tolerant of those who are neither true nor just.”

“Is your cucumber bitter? Throw it away. Are there briars in your path? Turn aside. That is enough. Do not go on and say, "Why were things of this sort ever brought into this world?" neither intolerable nor everlasting - if thou bearest in mind that it has its limits, and if thou addest nothing to it in imagination. Pain is either an evil to the body (then let the body say what it thinks of it!)-or to the soul. But it is in the power of the soul to maintain its own serenity and tranquility. . . .”
