Knowledge can be communicated, but wisdom cannot. A man can find it, he can live it, he can be filled and sustained by it, but he cannot utter or teach it.

• To die is to go into the Collective Unconscious, to lose oneself in order to be transformed into form, pure form.
• Often it is the most deserving people who cannot help loving those who destroy them.
• It is not our purpose to become each other it is to recognize each other, to learn to see the other and honor him for what he is.
• People with courage and character always seem sinister to the rest.
• Love of God is not always the same as love of good.
• You know quite well, deep within you, that there is only a single magic, a single power, a single salvation...and that is called loving. Well, then, love your suffering. Do not resist it, do not flee from it. It is your aversion that hurts, nothing else.
• The best weapons against the infamies of life are courage, wilfulness and patience. Courage strenthens, wilfulness is fun and patience provides tranquility.
• Without words, without writing and without books there would be no history, there could be no concept of humanity.
• There is no reality except the one contained within us. That is why so many people live such an unreal life. They take the images outside them for reality and never allow the world within to assert itself.
• I have always believed, and I still believe, that whatever good or bad fortune may come our way we can always give it meaning and transform it into something of value.
