The happiness of a man in this life does not consist in the absence but in the mastery of his passions.

If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face—forever.

Nobody on this earth has the right to tell anyone that their love for another human being is morally wrong.

Your big opportunity may be right where you are now.

The greatest quality is seeking to serve others.

Ultimately, we have just one moral duty: to reclaim large areas of peace in ourselves.

Life is short, art long, opportunity fleeting, experiment dangerous, judgment difficult.
