“When one has lost a friend one’s eyes should be neither dry nor streaming. Tears, yes, there should be, but not lamentation.”
“You can only acquire
it successfully if you cease to feel any sense of shame.”
“You cannot, I repeat,
successfully acquire it and preserve your modesty at the same time.”
”You have to persevere
and fortify your pertinacity until the will to good becomes a disposition to
good.”
“You want to live-but
do you know how to live? You are scared of dying-and, tell me, is the kind of
life you lead really any different from being dead?”
“Success is going from
failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm.”
”Every journey has an
end.”
“Everything hangs on
one’s thinking.”
“For men in a state of
freedom had thatch for their shelter, while slavery dwells beneath marble and
gold.”
“How can a thing
possibly govern others when it cannot be governed itself?”
“How much better to
pursue a straight course and eventually reach that destination where the things
that are pleasant are the things that are honorable finally become, for you,
the same”
“I am telling you to
be a slow-speaking person.”
-Luke
