A man of correct insight among those who are duped and deluded resembles one whose watch is right while all the clocks in the town give the wrong time.

A man can be himself only so long as he is alone.

It takes place, by and large, with the same sort of necessity as a tree brings forth fruit, and demands of the world no more than a soil on which the individual can flourish.

To desire immortality for the individual is really the same as wanting to perpetuate an error forever.

For the purpose of acquiring gain, everything else is pushed aside or thrown overboard, for example, as is philosophy by the professors of philosophy.

Will power is to the mind like a strong blind man who carries on his shoulders a lame man who can see.

To forgive and forget means to throw away dearly bought experience.
