I can't let them see my doubts, or the wounds they've inflicted on me.

What one Christian does is his own responsibility, what one Jew does is thrown back at all Jews.

What is done cannot be undone, but one can prevent it happening again

I want friends, not admirers. People who respect me for my character and my deeds, not my flattering smile. The circle around me would be much smaller, but what does that matter, as long as they're sincere?

Human greatness does not lie in wealth or power, but in character and goodness. People are just people, and all people have faults and shortcomings, but all of us are born with a basic goodness.

I don't believe that the big men, the politicians and capitalists alone, are guilty of war. Oh no, the little man is just as guilty, otherwise the peoples of the world would have risen in revolt long ago!

Despite everything, I believe that people are really good at heart.
