Do not speak of your happiness to one less fortunate than yourself.

Author: Plutarch

Also found in:

Courage stands halfway between cowardice and rashness, one of which is a lack, the other an excess of courage.

Neither blame or praise yourself.

The very spring and root of honesty and virtue lie in good education.

It is indeed a desirable thing to be well-descended but the glory belongs to our ancestors.

He who would travel happily must travel light.

Others may know pleasure, but pleasure is not happiness. It has no more importance than a shadow following a man.

Money is numbers and numbers never end. If it takes money to be happy, your search for happiness will never end.

Just because you are happy it does not mean that the day is perfect, but that you have looked beyond its imperfections.
