"You have asked me what I would do and what I would not do. I will tell you what I will do and what I will not do. I will not serve that in which I no longer believe, whether it call itself my home, my fatherland, or my church: and I will try to express myself in some mode of life or art as freely as I can and as wholly as I can, using for my defence the only arms I allow myself to use- silence, exile, and cunning."

Art
"Alone, quite alone. You have no fear of that. And you know what that word means? Not only to be separate from all others but to have not even one friend.-I will take the risk, said Stephen.-And not to have any one person, Cranly said, who would be more than a friend, more even than the noblest and truest friend a man ever had."
Relationship
"To say that a great genius is mad, while at the same time recognizing his artistic merit, is no better than to say he is rheumatic or diabetic."
