1.We do not need the benefit of the friend, but the belief that the friend is there for us
2.The cultivated people mostly work on friendship and wisdom
3.Don't worry on what you do, but with whom you do it
4.It is more hedonistic to do good than to receive a benefit
5.The just person is the calmest; while the unjust lives fool of anxieties.
6.It is worth to respect the nice and virtues and the similar when they are useful in preparing real pleasure. If not, don’t spend time and effort on them!
7.The infinite time does not contain more pleasure from a limited time!
8.Principal and root of every good is the pleasure of the stomach, even the wisdom and the high posts are based on her.
9.The calling of the body is to do not be in hanger, in thirst and cold, who has those and expects to keep them can surpass anyone in happiness and prosperity.
10.The limit of the size of the pleasures is the effacing of every pain. Where there is pleasure and for how long it exists, there is no body pain neither sorrow in the soul nor both of them.
11.No pleasure is evil by itself. Though, some pleasures are result through which more trouble is created than pleasure!
12.We must not forget that the strong pains are passing fast, while the long time pains are not strong

14.Don’t do anything that you are afraid your neighbour will be informed
15.Let us not destroy what we have by willing things we do not have; but let us think that what we now have there was time we were wishing to have.

20.Other wishes are natural and necessary, while other are natural, but not necessary and others are neither natural not necessary, but born from empty ideas.
a.Natural and necessary are those which expel pain, with the same way water expel thirst.
b.Natural and non necessary are those which just differentiate pleasure, without killing the pain, like the expensive clothes
c.Non natural and non necessary are the wishes for fame, show, etc.
21.If you want to make you child rich, don’t give him more and more money, take away his will for plenty and unnecessary wealth
22.It is foolish to request from God those which you can secure for yourself
23.Greatest result of self-sufficiency is Freedom
{and you, my dear friend, as a Libyan have learned it very well, especially during the Embargo!}
24.Necessity is terrible; it is not necessary though to live under the regime of need!
25.Living Free we can’t acquire large wealth, since this is not easy without servility to the masses or to the authorities. Although can have all the goods in continuous plenty. And if it happens to get large wealth, easily will donate to his fellow men winning their compassion and support.
26.The happiness and blissfulness are not result of large wealth, not of big actions, not authorative positions, nor power, but being away from sorrow, the calmness of feelings and the mental behaviour which recognizes the limits of nature.
27.Self sufficiency the greatest wealth
28.For whom little is not enough, nothing is enough
29.The wise man, even when he is limited to the necessary, he knows more to give than to receive, such treasure of self sufficiency he has discovered
30.We were born once and we will never live again. Every moment is unique, we will never live it again. Also, we do not govern the future neither we know it. Hence, don’t postpone the pleasure for later. Be happy with what you have and are.

I write poems and I think I used the best phrases that I bring to life myself, so sit back and relax while you listen to some phrases that I have, and I sincerly hope they help. ( One thing about life is that it is scary, but most of all it is temporary! ) ( Loving yourself is the main key, but loving the Lord comes before me ! ) ( Strive for what you want in Life. Let no what take away your pride ! ). That was just a little taste of what I do. But I have more to share with you. Just go to website @ poetry.com and the author is myself.

Tit for tat.
Pretty is as pretty does.
Lucky the bride the sun shines on.
Penny for your thoughts.
I'm rubber, you're glue, everything you say jumps right back to you.
Don't kiss and tell.
Make new friends, but keep the old, one is silver, the other gold.
You will always return if you get Florida sand in your shoes.
That is all I can think of for now.

Fish and visitors start to smell after 3 days. ~~ Ben Franklin. I find that to be soooo true. Just have someone stay with you for 3 days and your nerves will start to give. Try it.
