Ere now a simple tiller of the soil
Hath spoken words of wisdom to mankind;
A cloak all tattered and besmirched with toil
Hath ofttimes clothed a man of prudent mind. (Francesco Berni)

Ere now a simple tiller of the soil Hath spoken words of wisdom to mankind; A cloak all tattered and besmirched with toil Hath ofttimes clothed a man of prudent mind.

Louisa May Alcott

Wilhelm Stekel

The more tranquil a man becomes, the greater is his success, his influence, his power for good. Calmness of mind is one of the beautiful jewels of wisdom.

James Allen
