Courage in the path is what makes the path manifest itself.
If you don't know where you are going any road can take you there.

Be confident: Truth is not the end of the way, it is the way itself.
The way up and down is one and the same.

Each man must invent his own path.
One never goes so far as when one no longer knows where one is going.
When you find your path, you must not be afraid. You need to have sufficient courage to make mistakes.
In truth, the path does not matter, the will to achieve is enough.
A straight path never leads anywhere except to the objective.
The contempt of riches in philosophers was only a hidden desire to avenge their merit upon the injustice of fortune, by despising the very goods of which fortune had deprived them; it was a secret to guard themselves against the degradation of poverty, it was a back way by which to arrive at that distinction which they could not gain by riches.
Truth is mysterious, elusive, always to be conquered. Liberty is dangerous, as hard to live with as it is elating. We must march toward these two goals, painfully but resolutely, certain in advance of our failings on so long a road.
The shortest way to fame is to become good.
If one hesitates in his path, let him not proceed. Let him respect his doubts, for doubts, too, may have some divinity in them.
Greatness is a road leading towards the unknown.
For the paths of night and day are near to each other.
No path of flowers leads to glory.
The mysterious way leads inwards. Eternity with its worlds — the past and future — is in ourselves or nowhere.
Yet do I fear thy nature: It is too full o'th'milk of human kindness To catch the nearest way.
