Top 5 quotes from Jean de La Bruyère
"Children have neither a past nor a future. Thus they enjoy the present-- which seldom happens to us."
"That man is good who does good to others; if he suffers on account of the good he does, he is very good; if he suffers at the hands of those to whom he has done good, then his goodness is so great that it could be enhanced only by greater sufferings; and if he should die at their hands, his virtue can go no further: it is heroic, it is perfect."
"There is no road too long to the man who advances deliberately and without undue haste; there are no honors too distant to the man who prepares himself for them with patience."
"No man is so perfect, so necessary to his friends, as to give them no cause to miss him less."
"This great misfortune - to be incapable of solitude."

"If you have made a mistake, cut your losses as quickly as possible."
"If it were possible to talk to the unborn, one could never explain to them how it feels to be alive, for life is washed in the speechless real."
