“Friend, have the courageTo care little for wealth, and shape yourself, You too, to merit godhead.”

“The greatest wealth is health”

“I will be gone from here and sing my songs/ In the forest wilderness where the wild beasts are,/ And carve in letters on the little trees/ The story of my love, and as the trees/ Will grow letters too will grow, to cry/ In a louder voice the story of my love.”

“Here, too, the honorable finds its dueand there are tears for passing things; here, too,things mortal touch the mind.”

“Love conquers all things; let us too surrender to love.”

“Amor vincit omnia, et nos cedamus amori.Love conquers all things, so we too shall yield to love.”

“But the queen--too long she has suffered the pain of love,hour by hour nursing the wound with her lifeblood,consumed by the fire buried in her heart. [...]His looks, his words, they pierce her heart and cling--no peace, no rest for her body, love will give her none.”
