“Be like the sun for grace and mercy. Be like the night to cover others' faults. Be like running water for generosity. Be like death for rage and anger. Be like the Earth for modesty. Appear as you are. Be as you appear.”

“إن الإنسان في حاجة إلى عامين ليتعلم الكلام, و إلى ستين عاماً ليتعلم الصمت. و لست ابن عامين ولا ابن ستين عاماً. أنا في نصف الطريق. و مع ذلك فيخيل إلي أني أقرب إلى الستين لأن الكلمات التي لم أقلها أغلى على قلبي من كل الكلمات التي قلتها. الكتاب الذي لم أكتبه أغلى على قلبي من كل الكتب التي كتبت و هو أكثرها قيمة و قدسية و صعوبة.”

“A person who has not been completely alienated, who has remained sensitive and able to feel, who has not lost the sense of dignity, who is not yet "for sale", who can still suffer over the suffering of others, who has not acquired fully the having mode of existence - briefly, a person who has remained a person and not become a thing - cannot help feeling lonely, powerless, isolated in present-day society. He cannot help doubting himself and his own convictions, if not his sanity. He cannot help suffering, even though he can experience moments of joy and clarity that are absent in the life of his "normal" contemporaries. Not rarely will he suffer from neurosis that results from the situation of a sane man living in an insane society, rather than that of the more conventional neurosis of a sick man trying to adapt himself to a sick society. In the process of going further in his analysis, i.e. of growing to greater independence and productivity,his neurotic symptoms will cure themselves.”
