Quotes

  • The paths of glory lead but to the grave, and the intersect of the two is but a fleeting momentary glimpse, a vista of life as it was, as it is, and as it ever will be.
  • We are all interconnected. Our lives are invisibly tied to those whose destinies touch ours.
  • The beauty of the world is the mouth of a labyrinth. The unwary individual who on entering takes a few steps is soon unable to find the opening. Worn out, with nothing to eat or drink, in the dark, separated from his dear ones, and from everything he loves and is accustomed to, he walks on without knowing anything or hoping anything, incapable even of discovering whether he is really going forward or merely turning round on the same spot. But this affliction is as nothing compared to the danger threatening him. For if he does not lose courage, if he goes on walking, it is absolutely certain that he will finally arrive at the center of the labyrinth. And there God is waiting to eat him.
