He who esteems trifles for themselves is a trifler; he who esteems them for the conclusions to be drawn from them, or the advantage to which they can be put, is a philosopher.

Physical courage, which despises all danger, will make a man brave in one way; and moral courage, which despises all opinion, will make a man brave in another.

Cultivate Desire And Ego
Without desire, the world is dry.
Without ego the life is dry.
Desires promote activities.
Activities bring about taste.
The ego plays in maneuvering.
Maneuvering results in esteems.
Without taste and without esteems,
Being will be a waste of life.
Desires denied, sufferings come.
Esteem beaten, feeling low mounts.
Low risk desire is worth having.
Easy task ego too satisfies.
Desires parting, you are worn out.
Ego falling flat, you are blown out.

He who esteems none but himself is as happy as a king.
Iconoclast
A conflicted voyager
Unchaste, unrestrained.
Despiser and castigator.
A Merciless iconoclast,
Beauties destroyer.
The inconsistent up-rooter,
Lost to human passion.
Soul displaced.
Living in a distrait condition.
A gravid oddity
Waiting for the birth
Of the monster called Philistine.
