Attach Yourself To What Is Spiritually Superior,

Do Not Laugh Much Or Often Or Unrestrainedly.

If Any Be Unhappy, Let Him Remember That He Is Unhappy By Reason Of Himself Alone. For God Hath Made All Men To Enjoy Felicity And Constancy Of Good.

Is Freedom Anything Else Than The Power Of Living As We Choose? Nothing Else. Tell Me Then, You Men, Do You Wish To Live In Error? We Do Not. No One Who Lives In Error Is Free. Do You Wish To Live In Fear? Do You Wish To Live In Sorrow? Do You Wish To Live In Tension? By No Means. No One Who Is In A State Of Fear Or Sorrow Or Tension Is Free, But Whoever Is Delivered From Sorrows Or Fears Or Anxieties, He Is At The Same Time Also Delivered From Servitude.

Difficulty Shows What Men Are. Therefore When A Difficulty Falls Upon You, Remember That God, Like A Trainer Of Wrestlers, Has Matched You With A Rough Young Man. Why? So That You May Become An Olympic Conqueror; But It Is Not Accomplished Without Sweat.

What Thou Avoidest Suffering Thyself Seek Not To Impose On Others.
