Death is contagious; it is contracted the moment we are conceived.

the artist is not separate from the work and therefore cannot judge it.

I believe that consistently we need to look for good, and not for evil, that when we look for evil we call up evil, while heaven comes closer when we acknowledge it.

I am encouraged as I look at some of those who have listened to their "different drum": Einstein was hopeless at school math and commented wryly on his inadequacy in human relations. Winston Churchill was an abysmal failure in his early school years. Byron, that revolutionary student, had to compensate for a club foot; Demosthenes for a stutter; and Homer was blind. Socrates couldn't manage his wife, and infuriated his countrymen. And what about Jesus, if we need an ultimate example of failure with one's peers? Or an ultimate example of love?

The only way to cope with something deadly serious is to try to treat it a little lightly.

I do not know everything; still many things I understand.

Don't try to comprehend with your mind. Your minds are very limited. Use your intuition.
