“You must let go of a thing for a new one to come to you.”

“Nature ever faithful isTo such as trust her faithfulness.”

“The intellect,-that is miraculous! Who has it, has the talisman: his skin and bones, though they were of the color of night, are transparent, and the everlasting stars shine through, with attractive beams.”

“No, she thought, one could say nothing to nobody. The urgency of the moment always missed its mark. Words fluttered sideways and struck the object inches too low.”

“Words are containers for power”

“The word-coining genius, as if thought plunged into a sea of words and came up dripping.”

“After studying the Hungarian language for years, I can confidently conclude that had Hungarian been my mother tongue, it would have been more precious.

“I never knew what was meant by choice of words. It was one word or none.”

“When an idea is wanting, a word can always be found to take its place.”
