Over the last few days, amid such unprecedented and sudden change, I have found comfort and inspiration in the wise words of a random selection of people. I hope the quotes below are all genuine.

Over the last few days, amid such unprecedented and sudden change, I have found comfort and inspiration in the wise words of a random selection of people.

I hope the quotes below are all genuine. If they are not, I apologise for the misattribution but in the end, I don’t think it matters if the messages resonate with you.

I thought I would share them with you in the hope that they may be helpful to you, and guide and embolden you in the coming days.

Take care and stay safe.

The Six Mistakes of Man

  • The illusion that personal gain is made up of crushing others
  • The tendency to worry about things that cannot be changed or corrected
  • Insisting that a thing is impossible because we cannot accomplish it
  • Refusing to set aside trivial preferences
  • Neglecting development and refinement of the mind, and not acquiring the habit of reading and study
  • Attempting to compel others to believe and live as we do

– Cicero
