Wisdom is not communicable. The wisdom which a wise man tries to communicate always sounds foolish.

I have always been a great dreamer; in dreams I am more active than in my real life, and these shadows sapped me of health and energy.

Every healthy person must have a goal in life and that life must have content.

How beautiful the world was when one looked at it, without searching... just looked, simply and innocently.

It was still quiet in the house, and not a sound was heard from outside, either. Were it not for this silence, my reverie would probably have been disrupted by reminders of daily duties, of getting up and going to school.

Those who cannot think or take responsibility for themselves need, and clamor for, a leader.

Art is contemplation of the world in a state of grace and imaginatively reflecting that subjective understanding.
