Study has two functions: the first is to moderate and regulate a desire for knowledge, which sometimes passes all bounds. The second is to banish sloth and rouse our mind to avail itself of its sights and talents.

Where we feel at home is a place preferred; a source of emotional nourishment, a workshop for the development of our identity, a place to become one's self.

To be present to rightful doing is delight. Hunger for decency and self-discipline go hand in hand. A winner is one who learns to wait, work well at what is best to be done, and endures with grateful acceptance.
