"We are shocked by thieves taking pride in their clever touch, prostitutes in their depravity and murderers in their callousness. But it is shocking only because the atmosphere of the circles they move in is restricted, and - what matters most - we are on the outside. But isn't the same thing happening when rich men take pride in their wealth (which is theft), military commanders in their victories (which are murder) and rulers in their power (which is violence)? We do not see them as people who corrupt the concept of life, or good and evil, in order to justify their own situation, but only because the circles of people who share these corrupt concepts are wider, and we belong to them."
"No one can attain to truth by himself. Only by laying stone on stone with the cooperation of all, by the millions of generations from our forefather Adam to our own times, is that temple reared which is to be a worthy dwelling place of the Great God."

"Then he thought himself unhappy, but happiness was all in the future; now he felt that the best happiness was already in the past."
"Though the doctors treated him, let his blood, and gave him medications to drink, he nevertheless recovered."
"All the diversity, all the charm, and all the beauty of life are made up of light and shade."
"I think that when you remember, remember, remember everything like that, you could go on until you remember what was there before you were in the world."
