“Who, being loved, is poor?”

“Humanity takes itself too seriously. It is the world's original sin. If the cave-man had known how to laugh, History would have been different.”

“In examinations the foolish ask questions that the wise cannot answer.”

“Death must be so beautiful. To lie in the soft brown earth, with the grasses waving above one’s head, and listen to silence. To have no yesterday, and no tomorrow. To forget time, to forgive life, to be at peace.”

“The only way to behave to a woman is to make love to her if she is pretty, and to someone else if she is plain.”

“إن اللغة ناقل غير كفء، وإن الناس حين يسمعون كلامًا يفهمونه في ضوء ما لديهم من خلفيات معرفية، بل إن كثيرًا منهم يقرؤون تلك الخلفيات ويبلورونها عوضًا عن الاشتغال بفهم ما سمعوه.”
