The religious idea of God cannot do full duty for the metaphysical infinity.

The Universe is the game of the self, which plays hide and seek forever and ever.

I have no other self than the totality of the things of which I am aware.

Omnipotence is not knowing how everything is done; it's just doing it.

Of course, you can’t force your mind to be silent. That would be like trying to smooth ripples in water with a flatiron. Water becomes clear and calm only when left alone.

The more we struggle for life as pleasure, the more we are actually killing what we love.

What we have forgotten is that thoughts and words are conventions, and that it is fatal to take conventions too seriously. A convention is a social convenience, as, for example, money ... but it is absurd to take money too seriously, to confuse it with real wealth ... In somewhat the same way, thoughts, ideas and words are "coins" for real things.
