Be silent, or let thy words be worth, more than silence.
If there be light, then there is darkness, if cold, heat, if height, depth, if solid, fluid,
if hard, soft, if rough, smooth, if calm, tempest, if prosperity, adversity, if life, death.
Do not say a little in many words, but a great deal in few.
A man is never as big as when he is on his knees to help a child.
There is geometry in the humming of the strings, there is music in the spacing of the spheres.
Rest satisfied with doing well and leave others to talk of you as they please.
Educate the children, and it won't be necessary to punish the men.
In anger, we should refrain both from speech and action.
Choose rather to be strong of soul than strong of body.
No man is free who cannot control himself. Above all things, respect yourself.
Silence is better than unmeaning words. Most men and women, by birth or nature,
lack the means to advance in wealth or power, but all have the ability to advance in knowledge.
Above the cloud, with its shadow is the star with its light.
Salt is born of the purest parents, the sun and the sea.
Reason is immortal, all else mortal. All is number.
As soon as laws are necessary for men, they are no longer fit for freedom.
Anger begins in folly and ends in repentance. Friends share all things.
Number rules the universe. Declining from the public ways, walk in unfrequented paths.
We ought, so to behave to one another, as to avoid making enemies of our friends,
and at the same time to make friends of our enemies.
Choose always the way that seems the best. However rough it may be, custom will soon
render it easy and agreeable. Practice justice in word and deed,
and do not get in the habit of acting thoughtlessly about anything.
A blow from your friend is better than a kiss from your enemy.
Friends are as companions on a journey, who ought to aid each other,
to persevere in the road to a happier life. Thought is an idea in transit, which when once
released, never can be lured back, nor the spoken word recalled, nor ever can the overt
act be erased. It is difficult to walk at one, in the same time many paths of life.
You should make great things, not promising great things.
Power is the near neighbor of necessity. Learn to be silent, let your quiet mind listen,
and absorb. The highest goal of music is to connect one's soul to their divine nature,
not entertainment. God built the universe on numbers.
No one is free, who has not obtained the empire of himself. No man is free, who cannot command
himself. Learn silence, with the quiet serenity of a meditative mind, listen, absorb, transcribe,
and transform. It is better to be silent,
than to dispute with the ignorant. Do not go to bed, until you have gone over the day,
three times in your mind, what wrong did I do, what good did I accomplish, what did I forget to
do. The wise man should be prepared for everything, that does not lie within his control.
Let exercise alternate with rest. A stone is frozen music. Number is the within, of all things.
None, but God is wise. The stars in the heavens sing a music, if only we had ears to hear.
Friendship is one soul, in two bodies. Don't try to cover your mistakes, with false words.
Rather, correct your mistakes with examination. Choose rather to be strong of soul, than strong
of body. Choose always the way, that seems the best, however rough it may be, custom will soon
render it easy, and agreeable. Lust weakens both body, and mind. Astonishing, everything is
intelligent. A thought is an idea in transit. There is no word, or action, but has its echo
in eternity. Time is the soul of this world. As soon as you awake, in order lay the actions,
to be done the coming day. The wind is blowing, adore the wind. You should make great things,
not promising great things. Write in the sand, the flaws of your friend. Ability, and necessity
dwell near each other. Govern your tongue before all other things, following the gods.
Do not even think of doing, what ought not to be done. Love that shines from within,
cannot be darkened by obstacles, of the world of consequences. You should help a man,
to take up a burden, but you should not help him, put it back down. Do not spend in excess like one,
who is careless of what is good, nor be miserly. The mean is best in every case.
