The most subtle art, the strongest and deepest art - supreme art - is the one that does not at first allow itself to be recognized.

The individual never asserts himself more than when he forgets himself.

Believe in your strength and your vision. Learn to repeat to yourself, 'It all depends on me'.

Man is more interesting than men. God made him and not them in his image. Each one is more precious than all.

Do not do what someone else could do as well as you. Do not say, do not write what someone else could say, could write as well as you. Care for nothing in yourself but what you feel exists nowhere else. And, out of yourself create, impatiently or patiently, the most irreplaceable of beings.

God depends on us. It is through us that God is achieved.

Every instant of our lives is essentially irreplaceable: you must know this in order to concentrate on life.
