“Always the laws of light are the same, but the modes and degrees of seeing vary.”
“Both place and time were changed, and I dwelt nearer to those parts of the universe and to those eras in history which had most attracted me.”
“Every man will be a poet if he can; otherwise a philosopher or man of science. This proves the superiority of the poet.”
More on Purpose
“Certainly I believe that God gave us life for happiness, not misery. Humanity, I am sure, will never be made lazy or indifferent by an excess of happiness. Many persons have a wrong idea of what constitutes true happiness. It is not attained through self-gratification but through fidelity to a worthy purpose. Happiness should be a means of accomplishment, like health, not an end in itself.”
“Beloved, let us live so well our work shall still be better for our love, and still our love be sweeter for our work.”
“What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived. It is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead.”
More on Passion
“If you find a job you love, you'll never work again.”
“When you have passion for something you find a way to make it happen - this is the panacea to success.”
“Great feelings take with them their own universe, splendid or abject. They light up with their passion an exclusive world in which they recognize their climate.”
