"If one does not interfere in the obtained worldly life, then worldly life will run straight forward & smoothly. But one keeps interfering in the obtained worldly life. From the moment he wakes up, he interferes. If there is no interference in the unfolding circumstances one has obtained, then God's control will prevail, but by interfering one takes over the control himself."

"Every perfect life is a parable invented by God."
Life
"A doctrine serves no purpose in itself, but it is indispensable to have one if only to avoid being deceived by false doctrines."
Purpose
"To write the lives of the great in separating them from their works necessarily ends by above all stressing their pettiness, because it is in their work that they have put the best of themselves."
Work
"It is not the cause for which men took up arms that makes a victory more just or less, it is the order that is established when arms have been laid down."
Man
"Evil, when we are in its power, is not felt as evil, but as a necessity, even a duty."
