For the myth is the foundation of life; it is the timeless schema, the pious formula into which life flows when it reproduces its traits out of the unconscious.
From Thomas Mann
Opinions cannot survive if one has no chance to fight for them.
It is love, not reason, that is stronger than death.
It is a strange fact that freedom and equality, the two basic ideas of democracy, are to some extent contradictory. Logically considered, freedom and equality are mutually exclusive, just as society and the individual are mutually exclusive.
For I must tell you that we artists cannot tread the path of Beauty without Eros keeping company with us and appointing himself as our guide.
For the sake of goodness and love, man shall let death have no sovereignty over his thoughts.
A man lives not only his personal life, as an individual, but also, consciously or unconsciously, the life of his epoch and his contemporaries.
War is only a cowardly escape from the problems of peace.
Animals do not admire each other. A horse does not admire its companion.
The only religious way to think of death is as part and parcel of life.
