at peace with your neighbors,
and let each new year find you a better person.

Be always at war with your vices,
at peace with your neighbors,
and let each new year find you a better person.
What the new year brings to you
will depend a great deal
on what you bring to the new year.
What the new year brings to you
will depend a great deal on what
you bring to the new year.
This time, like all times,
is a very good one,
if we but know what to do with it.
The world is not yet exhaused;
let me see something tomorrow which
I never saw before.
You may be deceived
if you trust too much,
but you will live in torment
if you do not trust enough.
Goodness is the only investment that never fails.
The best people possess a feeling for beauty,
the courage to take risks,
the discipline to tell the truth,
the capacity for sacrifice.
Ironically, their virtues make them vulnerable;
they are often wounded, sometimes destroyed.
Concern for someone else was
a good remedy for taking the mind off
one's own troubles.
We don't always get to choose what we love.
