God is action, complete with mistakes, fumblings, persistence, agony. God is not the power that has found eternal equilibrium, but the power that is forever breaking every equilibrium, forever searching for a higher one.

You have your brush, you have your colors, you paint the paradise, then in you go.

Happy the youth who believes that his duty is to remake the world and bring it more in accord with virtue and justice, more in accord with his own heart. Woe to whoever commences his life without lunacy.

Since we cannot change reality, let us change the eyes which see reality.

We are not men, to have need of another, an eternal life; we are women, and for us one moment with man we love is everlasting Paradise, one moment far from the man we love is everlasting hell. It is here on earth that we women love out eternity

He who is invisible sees more clearly, hears more clearly, and is better able to read the thoughts of men.

Die every day. Be reborn again every day.
