“I have no problem with uninteresting or unoriginal people – they may have other, more important attributes, such as warmth, consideration, friendliness, a sense of humor or talents such as being able to make a conversation flow to generate an atmosphere of ease around them, or the ability to make a family function – but I feel almost physically ill in the presence of boring people who consider themselves especially interesting and who blow their own trumpets.”

“The most spiritual men, as the strongest, find their happiness where others would find their destruction: in the labyrinth, in hardness against themselves and others, in experiments. Their joy is self-conquest: asceticism becomes in them nature, need, and instinct. Difficult tasks are a privilege to them; to play with burdens that crush others, a recreation. Knowledge–a form of asceticism. They are the most venerable kind of man: that does not preclude their being the most cheerful and the kindliest.”

“For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.
For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.
For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.
For beautiful hair, let a child run his fingers through it once a day.
For poise, walk with the knowledge you’ll never walk alone.
...
We leave you a tradition with a future.
The tender loving care of human beings will never become obsolete.
People even more than things have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed and redeemed and redeemed and redeemed.
Never throw out anybody.
Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you’ll find one at the end of your arm.
As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands: one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.
Your “good old days” are still ahead of you, may you have many of them.”

“Čovjek je životinja u svojoj pojedinačnoj osamljenosti savršeno tužna, u prirodi, moglo bi se reći, gotovo deplasirana! U stadu živeći već prilično dugo, čovjek je čovjeku čovjek, okrutniji naime od svake druge zvijeri. Bestidna, lažljiva, glupa, zlobna i majmunska zvijer! Najsmješnija među životinjskim vrstama je sigurno vrsta majmunska, a koliko je majmun bliži neposrednom i logičnom životu od čovjeka? Poslije opice (koja u svakom pogledu zaostaje za drugim životinjama), čovjek je životinja najmajmunskija! Ta zvijer je proždrljivija od hijene, jer hijena prežderana strvinom može pokraj smrdljivog mesa da zaspi, dok čovjek, koji se prežderao toliko, da mu se od sitosti diže utroba - još uvijek ždere i, promatrajući oko sebe druge, gladne, sebi slične životinje, oblizuje se zadovoljno.”
