“It is folly to say you know what is happening to other people. Only they know, if they exist. They have their own Universes of their own eyes and ears.”

“Own only what you can always carry with you: know languages, know countries, know people. Let your memory be your travel bag.”

“Learn every day. Human beings must learn and know. It is only by learning and knowing, that they can raise their ‘level’. People are affected by what their eyes see, what their ears hear and by how they learn.”

“Whose work is it but your own to open your eyes? But indeed the business of the universe is to make such a fool out of you that you will know yourself for one, and begin to be wise.”

“Do you know what would happen if these walls had ears? They would commit suicide.”

“I know
it’s stupid to not own a gun yet have

so many triggers, but in some other world
gigantic seashells hold humans

to their ears and listen to the echo
of machines.”

“We never know what God has up His sleeve. You never know what might happen; you only know what you have to do now.”

“We know from daily life that we exist for other people first of all, for whose smiles and well-being our own happiness depends.”

“No matter how deep a study you make. What you really have to rely on is your own intuition and when it comes down to it, you really don't know what's going to happen until you do it.”

“Whenever you look back and say, "If," you know you're in trouble. There's no such thing as "if." The only thing that counts is what really happened.”
