***********************
A man by himself is in bad company.
An empty head is not really empty; it is stuffed with rubbish. Hence the difficulty of forcing anything into an empty head.
Creativity is the ability to introduce order into the randomness of nature.
Far more crucial than what we know or do not know is what we do not want to know.
It is easier to love humanity as a whole than to love one's neighbor.
The leader has to be practical and a realist, yet must talk the language of the visionary and the idealist.
The search for happiness is one of the chief sources of unhappiness.
To become different from what we are, we must have some awareness of what we are.
We can be absolutely certain only about things we do not understand.
We lie loudest when we lie to ourselves.
