» Argument » “When you argue with your inferiors, you convince them of only one thing: they are as clever as you.”
» Conscience » “Conscience: self-esteem with a halo.”
» God » “God is indeed dead. He died of self-horror when He saw the creature He had made in His own image.”
» Ideals and Idealism » “Idealist: a cynic in the making.”
» Love » “We love in another’s soul whatever of ourselves we can deposit in it; the greater the deposit, the greater the love.”
» Marriage » “Progress of a marriage: ”There was a time when you couldn’t make me happy. Now the time has come when you can make me unhappy.””
» Neighbors » “My neighbor doesn’t want to be loved as much as he wants to be envied.”
