The misuse of language induces evil in the soul.

The money one gets for selling one's soul is always spent in deadening one's conscience, so the net gain at the end of a lifetime is no greater than if the diabolic bargain had not been struck.

Virtue is the beauty of the soul.

False words are not only evil in themselves, but they infect the soul with evil.

I have not sought during my life to amass wealth and to adorn my body, but I have sought to adorn my soul with the jewels of wisdom, patience, and above all with a love of liberty.

The body cannot be cured without regard for the soul.
