Quotes about education:
Every man who rises above the common level has received two educations: the first from his teachers; the second, more personal and important, from himself.
Quotes about poverty:
Nature never said to me: Do not be poor; still less did she say: Be rich; her cry to me was always: Be independent.
As you simplify your life, the laws of the universe will be simpler solitude will not be solitude, poverty will not be poverty, nor weakness weakness.
Quotes for: problem
As soon as questions of will or decision or reason or choice of action arise, human science is at a loss.
Problems that remain persistently insoluble should always be suspected as questions asked in the wrong way.
The solution to the problem, which you see in life, lies in living in a way that makes the problems disappear.
Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge: it is those who know little, and not those who know much, who so positively assert that this or that problem will never be solved by science.
