“Make it thy business to know thyself, which is the most difficult lesson in the world”
“Thyself thy foe, to thy sweet self too cruel.”
“Love thy neighbor as thyself.”
“In this age, which believes that there is a short cut to everything, the greatest lesson to be learned is that the most difficult way is, in the long run, the easiest.”
“But thou, contracted to thine own bright eyes,Feed'st thy light's flame with self-substantial fuel,Making a famine where abundance lies,Thyself thy foe, to thy sweet self too cruel.”
“Love thy neighbor yes, but love thyself first.”
