This first glance of a soul which does not yet know itself is like dawn in the heavens; it is the awakening of something radiant and unknown.

There must be people who pray even for those who never pray.

All the forces in the world are not so powerful as an idea whose time has come.

Let the one fight for his flag, and the other for his ideal, and let them both imagine that they are fighting for the country; the strife will be colossal.

If you look in the eyes of the young, you see flame. If you look in the eyes of the old, you see light.

This first glance of a soul which does not yet know itself is like dawn in the heavens; it is the awakening of something radiant and unknown.

The man who fights against his own country is never a hero.
