"Habit is the most imperious of all..." - Quote by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

“Secrecy has many advantages, for when you tell someone the purpose of any object right away, they often think there is nothing to it.”

“Hatred is something peculiar. You will always find it strongest and most violent where there is the lowest degree of culture.”

“Treat people as if they were what they ought to be and you help them to become what they are capable of being.”

“Habit, if not resisted, soon becomes necessity.”

“Consciously or unconsciously, every one of us does render some service or other. If we cultivate the habit of doing this service deliberately, our desire for service will steadily grow stronger, and will make, not only for our own happiness, but that of the world at large.”

“Virtue is a habit of the mind, consistent with nature and moderation and reason.”

“If you wou'd be reveng'd of your enemy, govern your self”

“Don’t let someone who has a bad attitude give it to you.”

“Moderation is like sobriety: you would like to have some more, but are afraid of making yourself ill.”
