Sacrifice still exists everywhere, and everywhere the elect of each generation suffers for the salvation of the rest.
Only evil grows of itself, while for goodness we want effort and courage.
To live we must conquer incessantly, we must have the courage to be happy.
He who is too much afraid of being duped has lost the power of being magnanimous.
Hope is only the love of life.
Our life is nothing, it is true, but our life is divine. A breath of nature annihilates us, but we surpass nature in penetrating far beyond her vast phantasmagoria to the changeless and the eternal.
