Nothing strengthens authority so much as silence
Italian polymath of the Renaissance whose areas of interest included invention, drawing, painting, sculpting, architecture, science, music, mathematics, engineering, literature, anatomy, geology, astronomy, botany, writing, history, and cartography.
Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself
Ignore those that make you fearful and sad, that degrade you back towards disease and death
Become dust - and they will throw thee in the air; Become stone - and they will throw thee on glass
Start Where you are, use what you have, do what you can
He who avoids complaint invites happiness
Compared to the pleasure given by granting pardon, the pleasure given by exacting revenge is very faint indeed.
