It's just as possible to live to the full in a narrow corner as it is in bigness.

Inspiration is the richest nation I know, the most powerful on earth. Sexual energy Freud calls it; the capital of desire I call it; it pays for both mental and physical expenditure.

As the blackness of the night recedes so does the nadir of yesterday. The child I am forgets so quickly.

A comforting acquaintance, hope, a contagious thing like spring, inebriating like lager.

Education, fundamentally, is the increase of the percentage of the conscious in relation to the unconscious. It must be a developing idea.

The truth is that I am enslaved... in one vast love affair with 70 children.

Love has the quality of informing almost everything - even one's work.
