Lao Tzu

Watch your thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character.
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.

Hypatia

Fables should be taught as fables,
myths as myths, and miracles as poetic fantasies.
To teach superstitions as truths is a most terrible thing.
The child's mind accepts and believes them,
only through great pain and perhaps tragedy
can he be in after years relieved of them.

Marcus Aurellius

The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.
