Who said “Contentment is natural wealth, luxury is artificial poverty.”?

“A contented mind is the greatest blessing a man can enjoy in this world.”

“It is right to be contented with what we have, but never with what we are.”

“Happy the man, and happy he alone, he who can call today his own; he who, secure within, can say, tomorrow do thy worst, for I have lived today.”

“To be content with life -- or to live merrily, rather --all that is required is that we bestow on all things only a fleeting, superficial glance; the more thoughtful we become the more earnest we grow.”

“If the book is good, is about something that you know, and is truly written, and reading it over you see that this is so, you can let the boys yip and the noise will have that pleasant sound coyotes make on a very cold night when they are out in the snow and you are in your own cabin that you have built or paid for with your work.”

“Beauty is a short-lived tyranny.”

“Happiness is unrepentant pleasure.”

“Fame is the perfume of heroic deeds.”

“The hottest love has the coldest end.”

“To find yourself, think for yourself.”

“An unexamined life is not worth living.”
