I guess I'm pretty much of a lone wolf. I don't say I don't like people at all but to tell you the truth I only like it then if I have a chance to look deep into their hearts and their minds.

Irony regards every simple truth as a challenge.

Once to every person and nation come the moment to decide. In the conflict of truth with falsehood for the good or evil side.

The greatest homage we can pay to truth is to use it.

It is possible to be a master in false philosophy easier in fact than to be a master in the truth because a false philosophy can be made as simple and consistent as one pleases.

When we believe ourselves in possession of the only truth we are likely to be indifferent to common everyday truths.

There are few things in which we deceive ourselves more than in the esteem we profess to entertain for our firends. It is little better than a piece of quackery. The truth is we think of them as we please that is as they please or displease us.
