A door opens to me. I go in and am faced with a hundred closed doors..
When your suffering is a little greater than my suffering I feel that I am a little cruel..
I would go to heaven, but I would take my hell; I would not go alone..
A large heart can be filled with very little..
Even the smallest of creatures carries the sun in its eyes..
Yes, I will try to be. Because I believe that not being is arrogant..
My truths do not last long in me. Not as long as those that are not mine..
They will say you are on the wrong road, if it is your own..
Set out from any point. They are all alike. They all lead to a point of departure..
We have a world for each one, but we do not have a world for all..
When I do not walk in the clouds I walk as though I were lost..
Those who gave away their wings are sad not to see them fly..
What we pay for with our lives never costs too much..
What words say does not last. The words last. Because words are always the same, and what they say is never the same..
The chains that bind us the most closely are the ones we have broken..
Man talks about everything, and he talks about everything as though the understanding of everything were all inside him..
The real "it is well" is something I say from the ground, having fallen..
The confession of one man humbles all..
When I look for my existence I do not look for it in myself..
No one understands that you have given everything. You must give more..
Yes, this is what good is: to forgive evil. There is no other good..
