What was given to us by the past is adapted to the possibilities of the future.

Even if the whole world were to fall to pieces, the unity of the psyche would never be shattered.

Whereas I formerly believed it to be my bounden duty to call other persons to order, I now admit that I need calling to order myself.

I know that in many things I am not like others, but I do not know what I really am like. Man cannot compare himself with any other creature; he is not a monkey, not a cow, not a tree. I am a man. But what is it to be that? Like every other being, I am a splinter of the infinite deity, but I cannot contrast myself with any animal, any plant or any stone. Only a mythical being has a range greater than man's. How then can man form any definite opinions about himself?.

I am looking forward enormously to getting back to the sea again, where the overstimulated psyche can recover in the presence of that infinite peace and spaciousness.

Astrologers are influenced by theosophy, so they say, "That is very simple, it is just vibration!" ... But what is vibration? They say it is light energy, perhaps electricity, they are not quite informed. At all events the vibrations that could influence us have never been seen, so it remains just a word.

The educated man tries to repress the inferior one in himself, without realizing that by this he forces the latter to become revolutionary.
