“no man ever steps in the same river twice,
for it's not the same river and he's not the same man.”

“time is a game played beautifully by children.”

“the only thing that is constant is change.”

“the soul is dyed the colour of its thoughts.
think only on those things that are in line with your principles and can bear the light of day.
the content of your character is your choice.
day by day, what you do is who you become.
your integrity is your destiny - it is the light that guides your way.”

“to be even-minded is the greatest virtue.
wisdom is to speak the truth and act in keeping with its nature.”

“how can you hide from what never goes away?”

“it is in changing that we find purpose.”

“abundance of knowledge does not teach men to be wise.”

“the unlike is joined together,
and from differences results the most beautiful harmony.”

“all things are in flux"

“thinking is a sacred disease and sight is deceptive.”
