My darkness has been filled with the light of intelligence, and behold, the outer day-lit world was stumbling and groping in social blindness.

We should not think of conversion as the acceptance of a particular creed, but as a change of heart.

One's life story cannot be told with complete veracity. A true autobiography would have to be written in states of mind, emotions, heartbeats, smiles and tears; not in months and years, or physical events. Life is marked off on the soul by feelings, not by dates.

A man can't make a place for himself in the sun if he keeps taking refuge under the family tree.

To be blind is bad, but worse is to have eyes and not see.
