If man has one good memory to go by, that may be enough to save him.

Nothing is more seductive for a man than his freedom of conscience, but nothing is a greater cause of suffering.

I have no self-respect. But can a man of acute sensibility respect himself at all?

A just cause is not ruined by a few mistakes.

Perhaps I really regard myself as an intelligent man only because throughout my entire life I've never been able to start or finish anything.

One man doesn't believe in god at all, while the other believes in him so thoroughly that he prays as he murders men!

If he has a conscience he will suffer for his mistake. That will be his punishment-as well as the prison.
