To me dreams are part of nature, which harbors no intention to deceive but expresses something as best it can.

We do not know whether Hitler is going to found a new Islam. He is already on the way; he is like Mohammad. The emotion in Germany is Islamic; warlike and Islamic. They are all drunk with wild god. That can be the historic future.

The teacher pretended that algebra was a perfectly natural affair, to be taken for granted, whereas I didn't even know what numbers were. Mathematics classes became sheer terror and torture to me. I was so intimidated by my incomprehension that I did not dare to ask any questions.

Intuition does not denote something contrary to reason, but something outside of the province of reason.

My whole being was seeking for something still unknown which might confer meaning upon the banality of life.

I could not say I believe. I know! I have had the experience of being gripped by something that is stronger than myself, something that people call God.

Sometimes you have to do something unforgivable just to be able to go on living.
