If you keep the mind awake, alive, the rest of your being follows it gladly.

A good book is a world where you go in and stay gladly.

The superiority of man as a being lies in his mind's power to improve and protect the existential environment, in the soul and mind that can make it so that life is poetry and not a dump.

Sufficiency in knowing is an act of denying the needs of the mind.

If the only use for your mind and soul is to create suffering, it would have been better if you didn't have them at all...

Chain the clay until the mind ripens!
