I thank You Lord for creating the world beautiful and various and if this is Your seduction I am seduced for good and past all forgiveness

The dead have need of fairy tales too.

I turn to history not for lessons but to confront my experience with the experience of others and to win for myself a sense of responsibility for the state of the human conscience.

Be courageous when the mind deceives you Be courageous In the final account only this is important

I thank You Lord for creating the world beautiful and various and if this is Your seduction I am seduced for good and past all forgiveness

No time to grieve for roses when the forests are burning.

Inanimate objects are always correct and cannot, unfortunately, be reproached with anything. I have never observed a chair shift from one foot to another, or a bed rear on its hind legs. And tables, even when they are tired, will not dare to bend their knees. I suspect that objects do this from pedagogical considerations, to reprove us constantly for our instability.
