"Every man builds his world in his own image. He has the power to choose, but no power to escape the necessity of choice."

Power

"From this simplest necessity to the highest religious abstraction, from the wheel to the skyscraper, everything we are and everything we have comes from a single attribute of man-the function of his reasoning mind."

Values

"There is no escape from justice, nothing can be unearned and unpaid for in the universe, neither in matter nor in spirit-and if the guilty do not pay, then the innocent have to pay it."

Justice

"I can accept anything, except what seems to be the easiest for most people: the half-way, the almost, the just-about, the in-between."

Values

"There are two sides to every issue: one side is right and the other is wrong, but the middle is always evil."

Evil

"It only stands to reason that where there's sacrifice, there's someone collecting the sacrificial offerings. Where there's service, there is someone being served. The man who speaks to you of sacrifice is speaking of slaves and masters, and intends to be the master."

Sacrifice

"The man who does not value himself, cannot value anything or anyone."

Self

"Evil requires the sanction of the victim."

Evil

"It was the only thing I ever really wanted. And that's the sin that can't be forgiven-that I hadn't done what I wanted. It feels so dirty and pointless and monstrous, as one feels about insanity, because there's no sense to it, no dignity, nothing but pain-and wasted pain...why do they always teach us that it's easy and evil to do what we want and that we need discipline to restrain ourselves? It's the hardest thing in the world-to do what we want. And it takes the greatest kind of courage."

Regret

"Upper classes are a nation's past; the middle class is its future."
