Of all writings I love only that which is written with blood. Write with blood: and you will discover that blood is spirit.

You must await your thirst and allow it to become complete: otherwise you will never discover your spring, which can never be anyone else's!

The parasites live where the great have little secret sores.

You say it is the good cause that hallows even war? I say unto you: it is the good war that hallows any cause.

Pity aims just as little at the pleasure of others as malice at the pain of others Per-Se.

What is the difference between someone who is convinced and one who is deceived? None, if he is well deceived.

One should not be deceived: great spirits are skeptics ... Strength, FREEDOM which is born of the strength and overstrength of the spirit, proves itself by skepticism. Men of conviction are not worthy of the least consideration in fundamental questions of value and disvalue. Convictions are prisons.
