A false vision was better than none.

Ah, life, life, how madly, how cruelly it raced along your pulses!

I don't see as it matters much how well you mean if it's harm you're doin'.

it was a sly trick of God's to give a man work to do - it kept him from asking questions that God couldn't answer.

Religion is passionate, reckless, destructive, idol-smashing. It's a martyr burning at the stake. It's a crown of thorns and a cross.

There is too much doing - too little being! When we begin to get strenuous, life begins to grow intolerable.

There's precious little comes of telling people what they don't want to hear.
