Women make us poets, children make us philosophers.
Art is nature speeded up and God slowed down.
The idealist walks on tiptoe, the materialist on his heels.
Our expression and our words never coincide, which is why the animals don't understand us.
Animals awaken, first facially, then bodily. Men's bodies wake before their faces do. The animal sleeps within its body, man sleeps with his body in his mind.
The ring always believes that the finger lives for it.
