To be honest. I'd like people to think there is no falsity in me because what I do is really my character. But I think mystique, not knowing the truth about someone, is very appealing.

The thousand mysteries around us would not trouble but interest us, if only we had cheerful, healthy hearts.

The theoretical man finds his highest satisfaction in the process of knowing and in the uncovering of the covering; whereas the artist finds delight in what still remains veiled even after the greatest unveiling.

The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science.

One may say the eternal mystery of the world is its comprehensibility.

It was the experience of mystery - even if mixed with fear - that engendered religion.
