The best genius is that which absorbs and assimilates everything without doing the least violence to its fundamental destiny.

One is never deceived; one deceives oneself.

All is born of water; all is sustained by water.

If I say to the moment: 'Stay now! You are so beautiful'!

The unnatural, that too is natural.

There is nothing in the world more shameful than establishing one's self on lies and fables.

Merely to breathe freely does not mean to live.
