“if you want your name to be remembered after your death either do something worth writing or write some thing worth reading”

“Human action can be modified to some extent, but human nature can not be changed”

“Believing everybody is dangerous, but believing nobody is more dangerous.”

“Glendower: I can call the spirits from the vasty deep. Hotspur: Why, so can I, or so can any man; But will they come, when you do call for them?”

“It is not worth while to strain one's self to tell the truth to people who habitually discount everything you tell them, whether it is true or isn't.”

“Man has been here 32,000 years. That it took a hundred million years to prepare the world for him is proof that that is what it was done for. I suppose it is, I dunno. If The Eiffel Tower were now to represent the world's age, the skin of paint on the pinnacle knob at its summit would represent man's share of that age; and anybody would perceive that the skin was what the tower was built for. I reckon they would, I dunno.”

“It is easy to say something new, if all senses one will eschew. But hardly ever is found, that the new is also sound.”

“There exists an obvious fact that seems utterly moral: namely, that a man is always prey to his truths. Once he has admitted them, he cannot free himself from them. One has to pay something. A man who has become conscious of the absurd is forever bound to it.”

“A sense of humor always withers in the presence of the messianic delusion, like justice and the truth in front of patriotic passion.”
