If there is a God, atheism must seem to Him as less of an insult than religion.

As a general truth, it is safe to say that any picture that produces a moral impression is a bad picture.

Man is a mind betrayed, not served, by his organs.

Any man who does not see everything in terms of self, that is to say who wants to be something in respect of other men, to do good to them or simply give them something to do, is unhappy, disconsolate, and accursed.

The facts: nothing matters but the facts: worship of the facts leads to everything, to happiness first of all and then to wealth.
