“Escape me? Never, beloved! While I am I, and you are you.”

As is your sort of mind, So is your sort of search: You will find what you desire.

You call for faith: I show you doubt, to prove that faith exists. The more of doubt, the stronger faith, I say, If faith o’ercomes doubt.

Grow old with me. The best is yet to be. The last of life for which the first was made.

To do good things in the world, first you must know who you are and what gives meaning to your life.

Why stay on the earth except to grow.

Ah, love, – you are my unutterable blessing…..I am in full sunshine now.

Where the heart lies, let the brain lie also.

Genius is what a man invents when he is looking for a way out.

The last century has produced an abundance of ideologies that pretend to be keys to history but are actually nothing but desperate efforts to escape responsibility.

Escape from the known to get to know yourself, converse with strangers to understand yourself, travel far from noise to find yourself, and listen to your silence to feel yourself. Because being away from everything pushes you to look inside, find your peace and live awake.

Fly me to the moon but desert me there that I might finally breathe.

And then I understood you were never my rescue yet always my escape.
