A man is the sum of his misfortunes. One day you'd think misfortune would get tired, but then time is your misfortune.
Don't bother just to be better than your contemporaries or predecessors. Try to be better than yourself.
Even a liar can be scared into telling the truth, same as an honest man can be tortured into telling a lie.
The past is never dead. It's not even past.
