Common sense is nothing more than a deposit of prejudices laid down by the mind before you reach eighteen.

I am not a genius, I am just curious. I ask many questions. and when the answer is simple, then God is answering.

I have never belonged wholeheartedly to a country, a state, nor to a circle of friends, nor even to my own family. When I was still a rather precocious young man, I already realized most vividly the futility of the hopes and aspirations that most men pursue throughout their lives. Well-being and happiness never appeared to me as an absolute aim. I am even inclined to compare such moral aims to the ambitions of a pig.
