"‎Life is a shipwreck, but we must..." - Quote by Voltaire

“Cherish those who seek the truth but beware of those who find it.”

“May God defend me from my friends: I can defend myself from my enemies.”

“Everything you say should be true, but not everything true should be said.”

“Our thoughts are epochs in our lives; all else is but as a journal of the winds that blow while we are here.”

“Everything in life is not all beautiful, not all fun. There is lots of killing and drugs.”

“Applying the axioms of physical science to human life has something reprehensible to it.”

“We seldom break our leg so long as life continues a toilsome upward climb. The danger comes when we begin to take things easily and choose the convenient paths.”

“You know, when real trouble comes your humanity is awakened. The fundamental human experience is that of compassion.”

“I can be changed by what happens to me. But I refuse to be reduced by it.”
