Opinion is the death of knowledge.

Most people wish to be consoled, confirmed. They want their prejudices reinforced and their structured belief systems validated. After all, it hurts to think, and it's absolute agony to think twice.

... romance is unsatisfactory as a religion. It is no use looking for the infinite in the eyes of another.

It's love and the capacity for love that distinguishes one human being from another.

Longing is all that lasts.

We do what we can. The results are none of our business.

Greed stains our culture, soaks our sensibilities and has replaced grace as a sign of our intimacy with the divine.
