"The most deadly fruit is borne by the hatred which one grafts on an extinguished friendship" — Gotthold Ephraim Lessing

So soon as a fashion is universal, it is out of date

The more the fruits of knowledge become accessible to men, the more widespread is the decline of religious

Time bears away all things, even our minds

There is always something ridiculous about the emotions of people whom one has ceased to love

Our headstrong passions shut the door of our souls against God.

To cease to think creatively is but little different from ceasing to live
