You have not wasted your time; you have helped to save the world. We are not buffoons, but very desperate men at war with a vast conspiracy.
The golden age only comes to men when they have forgotten gold.
Coincidences are spiritual puns.
somehow one must love the world without being worldly.
And it is always the humble man who talks too much; the proud man watches himself too closely.
Man is an exception, whatever else he is. If he is not the image of God, then he is a disease of the dust. If it is not true that a divine being fell, then we can only say that one of the animals went entirely off its head.
