“The heart of a man is a small thing but it desires great matters. It is not big enough for a dog’s dinner but the whole world is not big enough for it. Man spares nothing that lives; he kills to feed himself, he kills to clothe himself, he kills to adorn himself, he kills to attack, he kills to defend himself, he kills to instruct himself, he kills to amuse himself, he kills for the sake of killing. From the lamb he tears its guts and makes his harp resound; from the wolf his most deadly tooth to polish his pretty works of art; from the elephant his tusks to make a toy for his child.(...)And who will exterminate him who exterminates all others?”

“You must love someone without expecting anything in return; otherwise it’s not truly love. You must respect someone without expecting anything in return; otherwise you don’t truly respect him. You must speak honestly without expecting a pat on the back or a high-five or a gold star next to your name; otherwise you aren’t truly being honest.”

“Любовта представлява една великолепна катастрофа: знаеш, че пред теб има стена и въпреки всичко даваш газ. Тичаш право към своята гибел с усмивка на уста. С любопитство очакваш кога точно ще гръмне всичко. Любовта е единственото предварително програмирано разочарование, единственото нещастие, което всеки може да предвиди и всеки път желае отново.”
