A modest man is usually admired, if people ever hear of him.
No architecture is so haughty as that which is simple.
The past cannot be changed. The future is yet in your power.

Be careful the environment you choose for it will shape you be careful the friends you choose for you will become like them.
Words are the leaves of the tree of language, of which, if some fall away, a new succession takes their place.
When you blame others, you give up your power to change.
