The world is the great gymnasium where we come to make ourselves strong.

The strong man is the one who is able to intercept at will the communication between the senses and the mind.

The whole history of the world is summed up in the fact that, when nations are strong, they are not always just, and when they wish to be just, they are no longer strong.

Solitary trees, if they grow at all, grow strong.
