The goal of life is not to possess power but to radiate it.

Madness is tonic and invigorating. It makes the sane more sane. The only ones who are unable to profit by it are the insane.

The only law which is really lived up to wholeheartedly and with a vengeance is the law of conformity.

The man who is intoxicated with life does not pass judgment, does not seek to come to a conclusion, does not impose his message on the world.

The cradles of civilization are the putrid sinks of the world.

Plots and character don't make life. Life is here and now, anytime you say the word, anytime you let her rip.

If there is to be any peace it will come through being, not having.
