I am deeply convinced that God is present both in the lives of every person and also in the lives of entire nations.

Every man always has handy a dozen glib little reasons why he is right not to sacrifice himself.

It's an universal law-- intolerance is the first sign of an inadequate education. An ill-educated person behaves with arrogant impatience, whereas truly profound education breeds humility.

We are all human, and our senses are quicker to prompt us than our reason. Every man gives off a scent, and that scent tells you how to act before your head does.

Friends! Let us try to help if we are worth anything at all!

We particularly like people who value us highly.

... a man can safely sacrifice a great deal as long as he clings to the essential.
