Everything we do consciously remains for us.

Truths that become old become decrepit and unreliable; sometimes they may be kept going artificially for a certain time, but there is no life in them.

One cannot keep all old views and opinions and acquire new ones.

I felt that on a basis of a "search for the miraculous" it would be possible to unite together a very large number of people who were no longer able to swallow the customary forms of lying and living in lying.

When a man begins to know himself a little he will see in himself many things that are bound to horrify him. So long as a man is not horrified at himself he knows nothing about himself.

It is by overcoming obstacles that man develops those qualities he needs.

People live in sleep, do everything in sleep, and do not know they are asleep.
