The worst loneliness is realizing that people are idiots.

Neither the past exists nor the future. Everything is present.

Teaching has become very complicated, and one no longer knew what to teach, how to teach, or whom to teach.

When there is money involved, freedom is very difficult.

The most dangerous power is that of the one who commands but does not govern.

I have never pretended that you consider me superior, provided that you do not consider me inferior.

I don't want you to be happy. Nobody is happy and we never will be, neither together nor apart. It's not about that. Since you have to suffer, it's better to suffer with someone and find comfort in company. You also can't be good alone.

I cannot wish for the good ones to win, as I do not know who they are.
