But Respect Yourself Most Of All.

Dear Youths, I Warn You Cherish Peace Divine, And In Your Hearts Lay Deep These Words Of Mine.

Before All, Be Real. Only The Truth Gives To The Word The Orpheus' Lyre Power.

Souls Never Die, But Always On Quitting One Abode Pass To Another. All Things Change, Nothing Perishes. The Soul Passes Hither And Thither, Occupying Now This Body, Now That... As A Wax Is Stamped With Certain Figures, Then Melted, Then Stamped Anew With Others, Yet It Is Always The Same Wax. So, The Soul Being Always The Same, Yet Wears At Different Times Different Forms.

We Come From God. As The Tree From The Root And The Stream From The Spring; That's Why We Should Always Be In Contact With Him, As The Trunk From The Root. Because The Stream Dries Up When It Is Separated From The Spring And The Tree Dies When Is Uprooted.

Some Are Slaves Of Ambition Or Money, But Others Are Interested In Understanding Life Itself. These Give Themselves The Name Of Philosophers , And They Value The Contemplation And Discovery Of Nature Beyond All Other Pursuits.
