The biggest adventure you can take is to live the life of your dreams.

[Talkies] are spoiling the oldest art in the world - the art of pantomime. They are ruining the great beauty of silence.

In the beautiful, man sets himself up as the standard of perfection; in select cases he worships himself in it. Man believes that the world itself is filled with beauty-he forgets that it is he who has created it. He alone has bestowed beauty upon the world-alas! only a very human, an all too human, beauty.

If we approach nature and the environment without this openness to awe and wonder, if we no longer speak the language of fraternity and beauty in our relationship with the world, our attitude will be that of masters, consumers, ruthless exploiters, unable to set limits on their immediate needs. By contrast, if we feel intimately united with all that exists, then sobriety and care will well up spontaneously.

Make sure you stay in touch with beauty instead of letting the ugliness of the world corrupt your soul.
