His

«Love comes when manipulation stops; when you think more about the other person than about his or her reactions to you. When you dare to reveal yourself fully. When you dare to be vulnerable.»
«Nobody succeeds beyond his or her wildest expectations unless he or she begins with some wild expectations.»
«It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.»
«I want to know how God created this world. I am not interested in this or that phenomenon, in the spectrum of this or that element. I want to know His thoughts; the rest are details.»
«Only one who devotes himself to a cause with his whole strength and soul can be a true master. For this reason mastery demands all of a person.»
«Of all that is written, I love only what a person has written with his own blood»
«Man is the cruelest animal. At tragedies, bullfights, and crucifixions he has so far felt best on earth; and when he invented hell for himself, behold, that was his very heaven.»
«Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.»
«I sometimes think that God, in creating man, somewhat overestimated his ability»
«Surely a man has come to himself only when he has found the best that is in him, and has satisfied his heart with the highest achievement he is fit for.»
