- Better a diamond with a flaw than a pebble without
- Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life
- Do not impose on others what you yourself do not desire
- If I am walking with two other men, each of them will serve as my teacher. I will pick out the good points of the one and imitate them, and the bad points of the other and correct them in myself
