Freedom is a system based on courage.
A word is not the same with one writer as with another. One tears it from his guts. The other pulls it out of his overcoat pocket.
Life holds only one tragedy, ultimately: not to have been a saint.
When you love someone you love him as he is.
When a man dies, he does not just die of the disease he has: he dies of his whole life.
I prefer a saint with faults to a sinner with none.
