“ Desultory reading is delightful, but to be beneficial, our reading must be carefully directed. ”
It is not that we have so little time but that we lose so much. ... The life we receive is not short but we make it so, we are not ill provided but use what we have wastefully.
~ Seneca
Life is like a play: it's not the length, but the excellence of the acting that matters.
Timendi causa est nescire - Ignorance is the cause of fear.
Difficulties strengthen the mind, as labor does the body.
