To make us feel small in the right way is a function of art;... - E. M. Forster

"Works of art, in my opinion, are the only objects in the material universe to possess internal order, and that is why, though I don't believe that only art matters, I do believe in Art for Art's sake."

"Love is always being given where it is not required."

"We must be willing to let go of the life we have planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us."

"Only a struggle twists sentimentality and lust together into love."

"If I had to choose between betraying my country and betraying my friend, I hope I should have the guts to betray my country."
