"The world is full of magical things patiently waiting for our wits to grow sharper."

"The good life is one inspired by love and guided by knowledge."

"Those who have never known the deep intimacy and the intense companionship of happy mutual love have missed the best thing that life has to give."

"To like many people spontaneously and without effort is perhaps the greatest of all sources of personal happiness."

"We know very little, and yet it is astonishing that we know so much, and still more astonishing that so little knowledge can give us so much power."
