"Controlling one's passions is a quality of a superior spirit. This very superiority protects the spirit from foreign and base influences. There is no greater power than power over yourself over your own passions, over your own will.

Controlling one's passions is a quality of a superior spirit. This very superiority protects the spirit from foreign and base influences. There is no greater power than power over yourself over your own passions, over your own will.
"Romanian
"Stăpânirea propriilor patimi e o calitate a unui spirit superior. Chiar această superioritate îl ferește pe spirit de influențe străine și josnice. Nu există o putere mai mare decât puterea asupra ta însuți asupra propriilor patimi, asupra propriei voințe."
