“Man only likes to count his troubles; he doesn’t calculate his happiness.”

Pain and suffering are always inevitable for a large intelligence and a deep heart. The really great men must, I think, have great sadness on earth.

Man is a mystery. It needs to be unravelled, and if you spend your whole life unravelling it, don’t say that you’ve wasted time. I am studying that mystery because I want to be a human being.

The darker the night, the brighter the stars, The deeper the grief, the closer is God!

Beauty will save the world.

To love someone means to see them as God intended them.

To love someone means to see them as God intended them.

This is my last message to you: in sorrow, seek happiness.

To go wrong in one’s own way is better than to go right in someone else’s.

Above all, don’t lie to yourself. The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect he ceases to love.

The greatest happiness is to know the source of unhappiness.

The soul is healed by being with children.

I am alone, I thought, and they are everybody.

If there is no God, everything is permitted.

To love is to suffer and there can be no love otherwise.

The mystery of human existence lies not in just staying alive, but in finding something to live for.

Man is sometimes extraordinarily, passionately, in love with suffering.

Perhaps; some day the precision of the data will be brought so far that the mathematician will be able to calculate at his desk the outcome of any chemical combination, in the same way, so to speak, as he calculates the motions of celestial bodies.

I wish to God these calculations had been executed by steam.

I find by my calculations, which are according to revealed inspiration, that the sword of death is now approaching us, in the shape of pestilence, war more horrible than has been known in three lifetimes, and famine.

Take calculated risks. Act boldly and thoughtfully. Be an agile company.

I’m not a competitor by nature, and I’m certainly not used to being evaluated.

You have to take the calculated risk, to earn something.

As a leader you do not stop and calculate your losses during combat.

I am an emotional equation, continually miscalculation, escalation, you should be elated!
