Without a love of humankind there is no love of God.

Not the power to remember, but its very opposite, the power to forget, is a necessary condition for our existence.

Every dawn renews the Beginning, and to behold the earth struggling out of the formless void, out of the night, is to witness the act of creation.

Not the power to remember, but its very opposite, the power to forget, is a necessary condition of our existence. If the lore of the transmigration of souls is a true one, then these, between their exchange of bodies, must pass through the sea of forgetfulness.

The lash may force men to physical labor, it cannot force them to spiritual creativity.

Writing comes more easily if you have something to say.

Humankind's ladder to God is a ladder of deeds.
