The aim of life is self-development. To realize ones nature perfectly — that is what each of us is here for.

I have no special talents. I am only passionately curious.

Words empty as the wind are best left unsaid.

Nothing is easier than self-deceit.

The true way to render ourselves happy is to love our work and find in it our pleasure.

I, and I alone, am responsible for everything I think and feel.

Good is stronger than evil; love is stronger than hate.
