“How much of human life is lost in waiting.”

“And after reading Thoreau I felt how much I have lost by leaving nature out of my life.”

“One has never said better how much "humanism", "normality", "quality of life" were nothing but the vicissitudes of profitability.”

“It is not lost time to wait upon God!”

“I had not yet learnt how contradictory is human nature; I did not know how much pose there is in the sincere, how much baseness in the noble, or how much goodness in the reprobate.”

“Feeling lost, crazy and desperate belongs to a good life as much as optimism, certainty and reason.”

“If there is no freedom of expression, then the beauty of life is lost. Participation in a society is not an artistic choice, it’s a human need.”

“We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery, we need humanity; more than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost.”

“As touching the gods, I do not know whether they exist or not, nor how they are featured; for there is much to prevent our knowing: the obscurity of the subject and the brevity of human life.”

“Only one who has learned much can fully appreciate his ignorance.
He knows well the limits of his knowledge and how much is waiting to be learned.”
