Everything that divides men, everything that separates or herds men together in categories, is a sin against humanity.

Fortunately, there is a sane equilibrium in the character of nations, as there is in that of men.

The struggles waged by nations are weak only when they lack support in the hearts of their women.

Culture, which makes talent shine, is not completely ours either, nor can we place it solely at our disposal. Rather, it belongs mainly to our country, which gave it to us, and to humanity, from which we receive it as a birthright.

Strength comes from waiting.

In truth, men speak too much of danger.

Like stones rolling down hills, fair ideas reach their objectives despite all obstacles and barriers. It may be possible to speed or hinder them, but impossible to stop them.
