"Smile out loud! Make them wonder."

"Bad people are, from the point of view of art, fascinating studies. They represent colour, variety and strangeness. Good people exasperate one's reason; bad people stir one's imagination."

"At first, they'll only dislike what you say, but the more correct you start sounding the more they'll dislike you."

"Listen to the people who love you. Believe that they are worth living for even when you don't believe it. Seek out the memories depression takes away and project them into the future. Be brave; be strong; take your pills. Exercise because it's good for you even if every step weighs a thousand pounds. Eat when food itself disgusts you. Reason with yourself when you have lost your reason."

"I writeNotFor the sake of gloryNot For the sake of fameNotFor the sake of successBut for the sake of my soul"

"There is a reason that all things are as they are, and did you see with my eyes and know with my knowledge, you would perhaps better understand."

"Do you have to have a reason for loving?"

"I do not pretend to be able to prove that there is no God. I equally cannot prove that Satan is a fiction. The Christian god may exist; so may the gods of Olympus, or of ancient Egypt, or of Babylon. But no one of these hypotheses is more probable than any other: they lie outside the region of even probable knowledge, and therefore there is no reason to consider any of them."
