"But in this world nothing is sure..." - Quote by Benjamin Franklin

“What signifies knowing the Names, if you know not the Natures of things.”

“Time is the stuff life is made of.”

“One of the advantages of being a 'reasonable creature' is that one can find a reason for whatever one wants to do.”

“When your eyes are fixed in the stare of unconsciousness, and your throat coughs the last gasping breath - as one dragged in the dark to a great precipice - what assistance are a wife and child?”

“The only thing a man can take beyond this lifetime is his ethics.”

“If your relationship to the present moment is not right - nothing can ever be right in the future - because when the future comes - it's the present moment.”

“Sweets to the sweet.”

“It is rather interesting how you get used to death.”

“One has been a poor spectator of life if one has not witnessed the hand - that kills from mercy.”
