The Snake Which Cannot Cast Its Skin

He Who Fights With Monsters Might Take Care Lest He Thereby Become A Monster. Is Not Life A Hundred Times Too Short For Us To Bore Ourselves?

I Love Him Whose Soul Is Lavish, Who Wanteth No Thanks And Doth Not Give Back: For He Always Bestoweth, And Desireth Not To Keep For Himself.

A Bad Conscience Is Easier To Cope With Than A Bad Reputation.

Verily, I Do Not Want To Be Like The Ropemakers: They Drag Out Their Threads And Always Walk Backwards.

You Implanted Your Highest Goal Into The Heart Of Those Passions: Then They Became Your Virtues And Joys.
