“Sometimes we feel lonely,”

“So it is more useful to watch a man in times of peril, and in adversity to discern what kind of man he is; for then at last words of truth are drawn from the depths of his heart, and the mask is torn off, reality remains.”

“When did you trust someone to hold a truth as carefully as you did?”

“Nothing more inelegant and ineffective than an art conceived in another art's form.”

“Once war becomes a clash of absolutes, there is no breathing room for mercy. Absolute truth is blind truth.”

“I tell you, you will not see the new beauty and the truth, until you make up your minds to spit.”
