Miscellaneous
"The least of things with a meaning is worth more in life than the greatest of things without it."

"If there is anything we wish to change in the child, we should first examine it and see whether it is not something that could better be changed in ourselves."
Children
"If one does not understand a person, one tends to regard him as a fool."
Miscellaneous
"I could not say I believe I know! I have had the experience of being gripped by something that is stronger than myself, something that people call God."
God
"I cannot love anyone if I hate myself. That is the reason why we feel so extremely uncomfortable in the presence of people who are noted for their special virtuousness, for they radiate an atmosphere of the torture they inflict on themselves. That is not a virtue but a vice."
Virtue
"Follow that will and that way which experience confirms to be your own."
Experience
"Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves."
Miscellaneous
"Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness."
Happiness
"Death is psychologically as important as birth. Shrinking away from it is something unhealthy and abnormal which robs the second half of life of its purpose."
