“We cannot live better than in seeking to become better.”

“It is better to change an opinion than to persist in a wrong one.”

“The hour of departure has arrived, and we go our separate ways, I to die, and you to live. Which of these two is better only God knows.”

“Now the hour to part has come. I go to die, you go to live. Which of us goes to the better lot is known to no one, except the god.”

“Well, although I do not suppose that either of us know anything really beautiful & good, I am better off than he is- for he knows nothing & thinks that he knows; I neither know nor think that I know.”

“He is not only idle who does nothing, but he is idle who might be better employed.”

“There is no solution; seek it lovingly ”
