10 quotes
The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.
You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of.
Real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present.
Blessed are the hearts that can bend; they shall never be broken.
Man is the only creature that refuses to be what he is.
Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower.
Nobody realizes that some people expend tremendous energy merely to be normal.
But in the end one needs more courage to live than to kill himself.
Those who lack the courage will always find a philosophy to justify it.
