Shallow sorrows and shallow loves live on. The loves and sorrows that are great are destroyed by their own plenitude.

Selfishness is not living as one wishes to live, it is asking others to live as one wishes to live.

People say sometimes that Beauty is superficial. That may be so. But at least it is not so superficial as Thought is. To me, Beauty is the wonder of wonders. It is only shallow people who do not judge by appearances. The true mystery of the world is the visible, not the invisible.

You shouldn't punish others for your own choices

Find expression for a sorrow, and it will become dear to you. Find an expression for joy, and you will intensify its ecstasy.

Anybody can make history; only a great man can write it
