Seek Only Light And Freedom And Do Not Immerse

"“Freedom is the only worthy goal in life. It is won by disregarding things that lie beyond our control.”"

"“Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself in your way of thinking.”"

"“The essence of being human is that one does not seek perfection.”"

"“To live without philosophizing is in truth the same as keeping the eyes closed without attempting to open them.”"

"“When, therefore, we maintain that pleasure is the end, we do not mean the pleasures of profligates and those that consist in sensuality, as is supposed by some who are either ignorant or disagree with us or do not understand, but freedom from pain in the body and from trouble in the mind. For it is not continuous drinkings and revelings, nor the satisfaction of lusts, nor the enjoyment of fish and other luxuries of the wealthy table, which produce a pleasant life, but sober reasoning, searching out the motives for all choice and avoidance, and banishing mere opinions, to which are due the greatest disturbance of the spirit.”"

"“If you only do what you can do, you can never be more than what you are now.”"
