"Any regime or any government which motivates its own people to be different than one another is a good regime, is a good government! Encourage people to think differently, to act differently, and to believe in different things, otherwise you create just a herd of animals!"

"It is when we think we can act like God, that all respect is lost, and I think this is the downfall of peace. We lie if we say we do not see color and culture and difference. We fool ourselves and cheat ourselves when we say that all of us are the same. We should not want to be the same as others and we should not want others to be the same as us. Rather, we ought to glory and shine in all of our differences, flaunting them fabulously for all to see! It is never a conformity that we need! We need not to conform! What we need is to burst out into all these beautiful colors!"

"A man may lack everything but tact and conviction and still be a forcible speaker; but without these nothing will avail... Fluency, grace, logical order, and the like, are merely the decorative surface of oratory."
Conviction
"We are ashamed to seem evasive in the presence of a straightforward man, cowardly in the presence of a brave one, gross in the eyes of a refined one, and so on. We always imagine, and in imagining share, the judgments of the other mind."
Impression
"Our individual lives cannot, generally, be works of art unless the social order is also."
Art
"As social beings we live with our eyes upon our reflection, but have no assurance of the tranquillity of the waters in which we see it."
Self-Awareness
"Prudence and compromise are necessary means, but every man should have an impudent end which he will not compromise."
Compromise
"To have no heroes is to have no aspiration, to live on the momentum of the past, to be thrown back upon routine, sensuality, and the narrow self."
Heroism
"The need to exert power, when thwarted in the open fields of life, is the more likely to assert itself in trifles."
Life
"To cease to admire is a proof of deterioration."
Etiquette
"So far as discipline is concerned, freedom means not its absence but the use of higher and more rational forms as contrasted with those that are lower or less rational."
Discipline
"Every general increase of freedom is accompanied by some degeneracy, attributable to the same causes as the freedom."
