In the end we are always rewarded for our good will, our patience, fair-mindedness, and gentleness with what is strange.

Faith makes blessed. Consequently it lies.

People who, out of an inborn moderation, leave every glass standing only half-emptied refuse to admit that everything in the world has its sediments and dregs.

as though "the Truth" were such an innocent and incompetent creature as to require protectors!

He who cannot give anything away cannot feel anything either.

Remain true to the earth.
