Време је тица, које те кити шареним перијем, но која ће доћи да почупа своје. Ако будеш сувише везао душу за перије, време ће ти с' перијем и душу очупати. Ах, како ће тад ружна бити нагота твоја!

Свети Николај Охридски и Жички
 
Razum je instrument mišljenja, a ne misao sama po sebi.
Misao jednog čoveka je pre svega njegova nostalgija.


Nema sudbine koja se ne prevazilazi prezirom


Ceni čoveka koji govori o tvojim greškama kao da ti je
otkrio skriveno blago, ceni čoveka koji ti pokazuje životne opasnosti


Prevaziži ljutnju mirnoćom. zlo dobrotom, pakost velikodušnošću
a čoveka koji laže jedino istinom
