Choose Always The Way That Seems The

Above All Things, Respect Yourself.

Oh, My Fellow Men, Do Not Defile Your Bodies With Sinful Foods. We Have Corn, We Have Apples Bending Down The Branches With Their Weight, And Grapes Swelling On The Vines. There Are Sweet-flavored Herbs, And Vegetables Which Can Be Cooked And Softened Over The Fire, Nor Are You Denied Milk Or Thyme-scented Honey. The Earth Affords A Lavish Supply Of Riches, Of Innocent Foods, And Offers You Banquets That Involve No Bloodshed Or Slaughter; Only Beasts Satisfy Their Hunger With Flesh, And Not Even All Of Those, Because Horses, Cattle, And Sheep Live On Grass.

Do Not Go To Bed Until You Have Gone Over The Day Three Times In Your Mind. What Wrong Did I Do? What Good Did I Accomplish? What Did I Forget To Do?

Above All Have Respect For Yourself.

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.
