We are shaped and fashioned by what we love

We don't get to know people when they come to us; we must go to them to find out what they are like.

We can redeem anyone who strives unceasingly.

One should not search for anything behind the phenomena. They themselves are the message.

All things are only transitory.

Over all the mountain tops is peace. In all treetops you perceive scarcely a breath. The little birds in the forest are silent. Wait then; soon, you too, will have peace.

The spectacle of Nature is always new, for she is always renewing the spectators. Life is her most exquisite invention; and death is her expert contrivance to get plenty of life.
