Words are not brains, you know.

The worst curse to befall anyone is stagnation, a banal existence, the quiet desperation that comes out of a need for conformity.

Even the most time-honoured truths do not have to be accepted until they are your truths.

If you live the questions, life will move you into answers.

Puffballs of vanity when they're not being absurdly violent; wretchedly unhappy in their mental prisons and too stubborn to open the door and escape.

The key to lasting happiness is to stop looking for it, and to know that you already have it.

Every man has a purpose, something special that he can do better than anyone else. Your work is to discover this, then give yourself to it. The extent to which you use your skills to add to the world determines your happiness.
