In order to succeed, we must first believe that we can.
From Nikos Kazantzakis
My principal anguish, and the wellspring of all my joys and sorrows, has been the incessant merciless battle between the spirit and the flesh.
The human soul is heavy, clumsy, held in the mud of the flesh. Its perceptions are still coarse and brutish. It can divine nothing clearly, nothing with certainty.
I said to the almond tree, 'Friend, speak to me of God,' and the almond tree blossomed.
One of man's greatest obligations is anger.
Life is trouble. Only death is not. To be alive is to unfasten your belt and look for a fight.
Let your youth have free reign. It won't come again, so be bold, and no repenting.
Behind each woman rises the austere, sacred and mysterious face of Aphrodite.
Beauty is merciless. You do not look at it, it looks at you and does not forgive.
There is only one woman in the world. One woman, with many faces.
