People don't notice whether it's winter or summer when they're happy.

There is nothing more awful, insulting, and depressing than banality.

When performing an autopsy, even the most inveterate spiritualist would have to question where the soul is.

Faith is an aptitude of the spirit. It is, in fact, a talent: you must be born with it.

A sweet lie is more gracious for us than a virulent but real truth.

When you're thirsty and it seems that you could drink the entire ocean that's faith; when you start to drink and finish only a glass or two that's science.
