Happiness isn't something you experience; it's something you remember.
                -- Oscar Levant

Having the fewest wants, I am nearest to the gods.
                -- Socrates

He has shown you, o man, what is good.  And what does the Lord ask of you,
but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly before your God?

He is truly wise who gains wisdom from another's mishap.

He knows not how to know who knows not also how to unknow.
                -- Sir Richard Burton

He that composes himself is wiser than he that composes a book.
                -- B. Franklin

He thought of Musashi, the Sword Saint, standing in his garden more than
three hundred years ago. "What is the 'Body of a rock'?" he was asked.
In answer, Musashi summoned a pupil of his and bid him kill himself by
slashing his abdomen with a knife.  Just as the pupil was about to comply,
the Master stayed his hand, saying, "That is the 'Body of a rock'."
                -- Eric Van Lustbader

He who despairs over an event is a coward, but he who holds hopes for
the human condition is a fool.
                -- Albert Camus

He who knows not and knows that he knows not is ignorant.  Teach him.
He who knows not and knows not that he knows not is a fool.  Shun him.
He who knows and knows not that he knows is asleep.  Wake him.

He who knows nothing, knows nothing.
But he who knows he knows nothing knows something.
And he who knows someone whose friend's wife's brother knows nothing,
        he knows something.  Or something like that.
