Socrates

• An un-examined life is not worth living.
• Be as you wish to seem.
• Be of good cheer about death, and know this of a truth, that no evil can happen to a good man, either in life or after death.
• Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others have labored hard for.
• Falling down is not failure. Failure comes when you stay where you have fallen.
• He is richest who is content with the least, for content is the wealth of nature.
• He who is not contented with what he has, would not be contented with what he would like to have.
• It is better to change an opinion than to persist in a wrong one.
• Sometimes you put walls up not to keep people out, but to see who cares enough to break them down.
• The greatest way to live with honor in this world is to be what we pretend to be.
• To find yourself, think for yourself.
• True knowledge exists in knowing that you know nothing.
• True wisdom comes to each of us when we realize how little we understand about life, ourselves, and the world around us.
• Wisdom begins in wonder.
