I am not an atheist. I do not know if I can define myself as a pantheist. The problem involved is too vast for our limited minds.

If I had an hour to solve a problem I'd spend 55 minutes thinking about the problem and 5 minutes thinking about solutions.

Show me a satisfied man, and I'll show you a failure.

I never allow myself to become discouraged under any circumstances. The three great essentials to achieve anything worthwhile are first, hard work, second, stick-to-ittiveness, third, common sense.

In talking about human rights today, we are referring primarily to the following demands: protection of the individual against arbitrary infringement by other individuals or by the government; the right to work and to adequate earnings from work; freedom of discussion and teaching; adequate participation of the individual in the formation of his government. These human rights are nowadays recognised theoretically, although, by abundant use of formalistic, legal manoeuvres, they are being violated to a much greater extent than even a generation ago.

The trite objects of human efforts-possessions, superficial success, luxury-have always seemed contemptible to me.

Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life's coming attractions.
