"Nothing will shake a man-or at any rate a man like me-out of his merely verbal thinking and his merely notional beliefs. He has to be knocked silly before he comes to his senses. Only torture will bring out the truth. Only under torture does he discover it himself."
Truth
"Friendship (as the ancients saw) can be a school of virtue, but also (as they did not see) a school of vice. It is ambivalent. It makes good men better and bad men worse."
Morality
"Clearly one must read every good book at least once every ten years."
Knowledge
"God's presence is not the same as the feeling of God's presence and He may be doing most for us when we think He is doing least."
Faith
"It's not a question of God `sending' us to Hell. In each of us there is something growing up which will of itself be Hell unless it is nipped in the bud."
Spiritual
"The Divine "goodness" differs from ours, but it is not sheerly different; it differs from ours not as white from black, but as a perfect circle from a child's first attempt to draw a wheel. But when the child has learned to draw, it will know that the circle it then makes is what it was trying to make from the very beginning."
Spiritual
"We...advance toward a state of society in which not only each man but every impulse in each man claims carte blanche."
Society
"You are never to old to set another goal or to dream a new dream."
Inspirational
"What may be myth in one world may always be fact in some other."
Creativity
"Gratitude looks to the Past and love to the Present; fear, avarice, lust, and ambition look ahead."

"Death is merely an illusion of the departed... Just because you cannot physically see the idea of God, doesn't mean that he or she isn't there. Just because you cannot physically see someone that isn't here, doesn't mean that they aren't there."
