There are some dead who are more alive than the living.

A hero is a man who does what he can.

If a man is to shed the light of the sun upon other men, he must first of all have it within himself.

Every race, every art has its hypocrisy. The world is fed with a little truth and many lies.

The theatre, like the fresco, is art fitted to its place. And therefore it is above all else the human art, the living art.

There is no joy other than the joy of creating. There is no man who is truly alive other than one who is creating. All others are just shadows on the earth with nothing to do with being alive. The joy of living, whether it is love or action, is the joy of creating.

You are a vain fellow. You want to be a hero. That is why you do such silly things. A hero!... I don't quite know what that is: but, you see, I imagine that a hero is a man who does what he can. The others do not do it.
