“All success cloaks a surrender.”

Girls are weighed down by restrictions, boys with demands – two equally harmful disciplines.

I am too intelligent, too demanding, and too resourceful for anyone to be able to take charge of me entirely. No one knows me or loves me completely. I have only myself.

I tore myself away from the safe comfort of certainties through my love for truth – and truth rewarded me.

Life is occupied in both perpetuating itself and in surpassing itself; if all it does is maintain itself, then living is only not dying.

Change your life today. Don’t gamble on the future, act now, without delay.

The oppressor would not be so strong if he did not have accomplices among the oppressed.

What would Prince Charming have for occupation if he had not to awaken the Sleeping beauty?

There is no justification for present existence other than its expansion into an indefinitely open future.

Oppression tries to defend itself by its utility.

To catch a husband is an art; to hold him is a job.

If the feminine issue is so absurd, is because the male’s arrogance made it a discussion.

All oppression creates a state of war. And this is no exception.

Literature took the place in my life that had once been occupied by religion: it absorbed me entirely, and transfigured my life.

A day in which I don’t write leaves a taste of ashes.

The characteristic feature of all ethics is to consider human life as a game that can be won or lost and to teach man the means of winning.

I am incapable of conceiving infinity, and yet I do not accept finity. I want this adventure that is the context of my life to go on without end.

Great things do not just happen by impulse, but as a succession of small things linked together.

I defeat my enemies when I make them my friends.

The country doesn’t deserve anything less than success from us. Let us aim for success.

In the end, it is the person you become, not the things you have achieved, that is the most important.

Some people dream of success, while others wake up and work hard at it.

Life is a suscess.

Give yourself no choice but to succeed. let the consequences of failure become so dire and so unthinkable that you’ll have no choice but to do whatever it takes to succeed.

Learn to look after your staff first and the rest will follow.
