The Messiah will only come when he is no longer needed.

If there is a transmigration of souls then I am not yet on the bottom rung. My life is a hesitation before birth.

I am always trying to convey something that can’t be conveyed, to explain something which is inexplicable, to tell about something I have in my bones, something which can be expressed only in the bones.

Suffering is the positive element in this world, indeed it is the only link between this world and the positive.

I do not see the world at all; I invent it.

Just because your doctor has a name for your condition, doesn't mean he knows what it is.

One can disintegrate the world by means of very strong light. For weak eyes the world becomes solid, for still weaker eyes it seems to develop fists, for eyes weaker still it becomes shamefaced and smashes anyone who dares to gaze upon it.
