“I think you are wrong to want a heart. It makes most people unhappy. If you only knew it, you are in luck not to have a heart.”

“To ‘know Thyself’ is considered quite an accomplishment.”

“No thief, however skillful, can rob one of knowledge, and that is why knowledge is the best and safest treasure to acquire.”

“I shall take the heart. For brains do not make one happy, and happiness is the best thing in the world.”

“…and remember my sentimental friend that a heart is not judged by how much you love, but by how much you are loved by others.”
