Don't allow your animal nature to rule your reason.

Be occupied, then, with what you really value and let the thief take something else.

The intelligent want self-control; children want candy.

Know that a word suddenly shot from the tongue is like an arrow shot from the bow. Son, that arrow won't turn back on its way; you must damn the torrent at its source.

"On the way there is no harder pass than this: fortunate is he who does not carry envy as a companion."

Revile those who flatter you.

Travelers, it is late. Life's sun is going to set. During these brief days that you have strength, be quick and spare no effort of your wings.

Everything in the universe is a pitcher brimming with wisdom and beauty.

Fasting is the first principle of medicine.

There is no worse sickness for the soul, o you who are proud, than this pretense of perfection.

Let's ask God to help us to self-control for one who lacks it, lacks his grace.
