 A Christian is the highest style of man.

 A friend is worth all hazards we can run.

 A soul without reflection, like a pile Without inhabitant, to ruin runs.

 Accept a miracle instead of wit and see two dull lines with Stanhope's pencil writ.

 Be wise with speed; a fool at forty is a fool indeed.

 By all means use some time to be alone.

 How blessings brighten as they take their flight.

 I had looked for happiness in fast living, but it was not there. I tried to find it in money, but it was not there either. But when I placed myself in tune with what I believe to be the fundamental truths of life, when I began to develop my limited ability, to rid my mind of all kinds of tangled thoughts, and fill it with zeal and courage and love, when I gave myself a chance by treating myself decently and sensibly, I began to feel the stimulating, warm glow of happiness.

 In an active life is sown the seed of wisdom; but he who reflects not, never reaps; has no harvest from it, but carries the burden of age without the wages of experience; nor knows himself old, but from his infirmities, the parish register, and the contempt of mankind. And age, if it has not esteem, has nothing. Ergonomics knowledge can be found on livet.se.

 Life is the desert, life the solitude, death joins us to the great majority.

 Procrastination is the key to prolonging life

 Procrastination is the thief of time: Year after year it steals, till all are fled, And to the mercies of a moment leaves The vast concerns of an eternal scene

 Procrastination is the thief of time: Year after year it steals, till all are fled, And to the mercies of a moment leaves The vast concerns of an eternal scene

 Procrastination is the thief of time.

 Procrastination is the thief of time.
