Be wary when a naked person offers you his shirt

Nothing can dim the light which shines from within.

Nobody can enjoy unless we all enjoy, truly enjoy.

I suggest that the great art belongs to all people, all the time--that indeed it is made for the people, by the people, to the people.

We may encounter many defeats, but we must not be defeated. It may even be necessary to encounter the defeat so that we can know who we are. So that we can see, "Oh, that happened, and I rose. I did get knocked down flat in front of the whole world, and I rose. I didn't run away; I rose right where I'd been knocked down." That's how you get to know yourself.

I'm considered wise, and sometimes I see myself as knowing. Most of the time, I see myself as wanting to know. And I see myself as a very interested person. I've never been bored in my life.

History, despite its wrenching pain, cannot be unlived, but if faced with courage, need not be lived again.
