To try, to challenge, to persist, to persevere, to be true to oneself, to fight fiercely against destiny, to astonish catastrophe with our lack of fear, sometimes facing unjust power and other times rebelling against drunken victory, to resist, to stand up: that is the example that people need and the electrifying light.
The freedom to love is no less sacred than the freedom to think. What is now called adultery was once called heresy.
In the eyes of the young, the flame burns; in the eyes of the old, the light shines.
When love is happy, it leads the soul to sweetness and kindness.
The eye sees God best only through tears.
