Our abode in this world is transitory, our life therein is but a loan, our breaths are numbered and our indolence is manifest.

Our abode in this world is transitory, our life therein is but a loan...
Our breaths are numbered and our indolence is manifest.

Knowledge is the life of the mind.

If an ignorant person is attracted by the things of the world, that is bad. But if a learned person is thus attracted, it is worse.

O man you are busy working for the world, and the world is busy trying to turn you out.

Have an earnestness for death and you will have life.
