Whatever the universal nature assigns to any man at any time is for the good of that man at that time.

A man's worth is no greater than his ambitions.

The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts: therefore, guard accordingly, and take care that you entertain no notions unsuitable to virtue and reasonable nature.

Aptitude found in the understanding and is often inherited. Genius coming from reason and imagination, rarely.

Look within. Within is the fountain of good, and it will ever bubble up, if thou wilt ever dig.
