Let ignorance reproduce itself until it is weary of its own offspring.

Spare me the political events and power struggles, as the whole earth is my homeland and all men are my fellow countrymen.

The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain.

Love is the only freedom in the world because it so elevates the spirit that the laws of humanity and the phenomena of nature do not alter its course.

In truth you owe naught to any man. You owe to all men.

A minute moving among the patterns of beauty and the dreams of love is greater and more precious than an age filled with splendor granted by the weak to the strong.
