The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry.

There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit. The only way to do great work is to love what you do.

The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation. What is called resignation is confirmed desperation. I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life.
