The fascination of what's difficult Has dried the sap out of my veins, and rent Spontaneous joy and natural content Out of my heart.

In dreams begin responsibilitiy.

Man has created death.

I have grown to believe that there is no dangerous idea, which does not become less dangerous when written out in sincere and careful English.

We taste and feel and see the truth. We do not reason ourselves into it.

We cannot doubt that barbaric people receive such influences more visibly and obviously, and in all likelihood more easily and fully than we do, for our life in cities, which deafens or kills the passive meditative life, and our education that enlarges the separated, self-moving mind, have made our souls less sensitive.

Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.
