"Art never harms itself by keeping aloof from the social problems of the day: rather, by so doing, it more completely realises for us that which we desire."
"Ultimately the bond of all companionship, whether in marriage or in friendship, is conversation, and conversation must have a common basis, and between two people of widely different culture the only common basis possible is the lowest level."
"Between men and women there is no friendship possible. There is passion, enmity, worship, love, but no friendship."
"The aim of life is self-development. To realize one's nature perfectly - that is what each of us is here for."
