“If I die very young, hear this:”

“I'm one of my sensations.”

“The man stopped talking and was looking at the sunset.”

“To make a deliberate falsification for personal gain is the last, worst depth to which either scholar or artist can descend in work or life.”

“There is nothing more pure and beautiful than a person who always speaks truthfully with a childlike heart.”
