It is impossible to live a pleasant life without living wisely and well and justly. And it is impossible to live wisely and well and justly without living a pleasant life.

It is easier to be wise for others than for ourselves.

A wise man will live as much within his wit as within his income.

An unfortunate thing about this world is that the good habits are much easier to give up than the bad ones.

It is obvious that different individuals require different things to live good, healthy, and virtuous lives.

Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you as by the attitude you bring to life; not so much by what happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens.

Living is more a question of what one spends than what one makes.

A change in bad habits leads to a change in life.

As human beings we do change, grow, adapt, perhaps even learn and become wiser.

Choose the life that is most useful, and habit will make it the most agreeable.
