To a footman who had accidentally spilt cream over him

"My good man, I'm not a strawberry!"

Edward VII

He is a wise man who does not grieve for the things which he has not, but rejoices for those which he has.

Epictetus

To make the right choices in life, you have to get in touch with your soul. To do this, you need to experience solitude, which most people are afraid of, because in the silence you hear the truth and know the solutions.

Deepak K. Chopra

To me it seems that to give happiness is a far nobler goal that to attain it: and that what we exist for is much more a matter of relations to others than a matter of individual progress: much more a matter of helping others to heaven than of getting there ourselves.

Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson]

The secret to mastery in any field is to forever be a student.
