  • All soul is immortal. For that which is always in movement is immortal; that which moves something else, and is moved by something else, in ceasing from movement ceases from living.

  • For neither does wealth bring honour to the owner, if he be a coward; of such a one the wealth belongs to another, and not to himself.
