I love those who do not know how to live for today.

Faith is the path of least resistance.

There is not sufficient religion in the world merely to put an end to the number of religions.

Here one must think profoundly to the very basis and resist all sentimental weakness: life itself is essentially appropriation, injury, conquest of the strange and weak, suppression, severity, obtrusion of peculiar forms, incorporation, and at the least, putting it mildest, exploitation - but why should one for ever use precisely these words on which for ages a disparaging purpose has been stamped?

We have to be careful that in throwing out the devil, we don't throw out the best part of ourselves.

Glance into the world just as though time were gone: and everything crooked will become straight to you.

Every virtue has its privilege: for example, that of contributing its own little bundle of wood to the funeral pyre of one condemned.
