He who reigns within himself and rules passions, desires, and fears is more than a king.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I am, indeed, a king, because I know how to rule myself.
I count him braver who overcomes his desires than him who conquers his enemies; for the hardest victory is over self.
Fashion as King is sometimes a very stupid ruler.
A king is a thing men have made for their own sakes, for quietness sake. Just as in a family one man is appointed to buy the meat.
If God had sufficient wisdom and power to construct such a beautiful world as this, then we must admit that his wisdom and power are immeasurably greater than that of man, and hence he is qualified to reign as king.
He is happiest, be he king or peasant, who finds peace in his home.
One's only rival is one's own potentialities. One's only failure is failing to live up to one's own possibilities. In this sense, every man can be a king, and must therefore be treated like a king.
He conquers who endures.
The only safe ruler is he who has learned to obey willingly.
There can be no failure to a man who has not lost his courage, his character, his self respect, or his self-confidence. He is still a King.
