Our friends early appear to us as representatives of certain ideas, which they never pass or exceed. They stand on the brink of the ocean of thought and power, but they never take a single step that would bring them there.

When the night is darkest, the stars come out.

Life only avails, not the having lived.

It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them.

If we meet no gods, it is because we harbor none.

Love and you shall be loved. All love is mathematically just, as much as two sides of an algebraic equation.

Whoso would be a man must be a nonconformist.
