I lay it down as a fact that if all men knew what others say of them, there would not be four friends in the world
French mathematician, physicist, inventor, writer and Catholic theologian.
It is man's natural sickness to believe that he possesses the truth
Few friendships would survive if each one knew what his friend says of him behind his back
Dull minds are never either intuitive or mathematical
I would prefer an intelligent hell to a stupid paradise
Kind words don't cost much. Yet they accomplish much
To make light of philosophy is to be a true philosopher
Our life is what our thoughts make it
One of the penalties of refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors
The biggest shame is, to mock at something that you have in yourself.
We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light
There is no time for ease and comfort. It is time to dare and endure
The human being is not in control of his feelings, but he is in control of his movements
