"If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need."

"If the way is not seeking always better ways, it is not the way."

"Caretake this moment. Immerse yourself in its particulars."

"What is linear is not history but the human spirit."

“In order to understand the world, one has to turn away from it on occasion."

"Nights through dreams tell the myths forgotten by the day."

"If I had not been admitted to these studies it would not have been worth while to have been born."

"It's not what you look at that matters, it's what you see."

"Beauty is always worth it."

"It is no measure of good health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society."

"The Soul that would be touched by beauty must sometimes walk alone."

"Progress lies not in enhancing what is, but in moving towards what will be."
