How little can we foresee the consequences either of wise or unwise action, of virtue or of malice. Without this measureless and perpetual uncertainty, the drama of human life would be destroyed.

I no longer listen to what people say, I just watch what they do. Behavior never lies.

We make our buildings and afterwards they make us. They regulate the course of our lives.

Only when you combine sound intellect with emotional discipline do you get rational behavior.

There is something in the human spirit that will survive and prevail, there is a tiny and brilliant light burning in the heart of man that will not go out no matter how dark the world becomes.

Condemn none: if you can stretch out a helping hand, do so. If you cannot, fold your hands, bless your brothers, and let them go their own way.
