Start your day in a upward direction, and the rest of the day will follow the uphill path.

Do as you want, following others may cause you to lose your direction.

Your friends will be as careless with your life as they are with their own.

Inner guidance is heard like soft music in the night by those who have learned to listen.

The youth may build or plant or sail, only let him not be hindered from doing that which he tells me he would like to do. It is by a mathematical point only that we are wise, as the sailor or the fugitive slave keeps the polestar in his eye; but that is sufficient guidance for all our life. We may not arrive at our port within a calculable period, but we would preserve the true course.

What you really want for yourself is always trying to break through, just as a cooling breeze flows through an open window on a hot day. Your part is to open the windows of your mind.
