Achievement
The measure of a man is the way he bears up under misfortune.
Blame
To find a fault is easy; to do better may be difficult.
Contentment
Learn to be pleased with everything; with wealth, so far as it makes us beneficial to others; with poverty, for not having much to care for; and with obscurity, for being unenvied.
Happiness
Do not speak of your happiness to one less fortunate than yourself.
Money
When the strong box contains no more both friends and flatterers shun the door.
Prosperity
Nothing is harder to direct than a man in prosperity; nothing more easily managed that one is adversity.
Risk
To do an evil act is base. To do a good one without incurring danger, is common enough. But it is part of a good man to do great and noble deeds though he risks everything in doing them.
Time and Time Management
Time is the wisest of all counselors.
