“The greatest medicine of all is teaching people how not to need it”

“The main object of teaching is not to give explanations, but to knock at the doors of the mind.”

“Rule your mind or it will rule you.”

“Be modest in speech, but excel in action.”

“Carpe diem! Rejoice while you are alive; enjoy the day; live life to the fullest; make the most of what you have. It is later than you think.”
