A life without envy, hatred and lies was not a life worth living.

Ambition had never troubled me, so I decided to begin by watching life at my leisure for a few years, waiting until I finally felt tempted to find some circle of influence for myself.

That...that was how I spent the day, just waiting, waiting, waiting...but waiting like a man running amok, senselessly, like an animal, with that headlong, direct persistance.

You only exist because of the agreements you made with yourself and with the other humans around you.

If taxation without consent is not robbery, then any band of robbers have only to declare themselves a government, and all their robberies are legalized.

When the wind likes a path, the weeds around that path will tremble all day long!

With me, what you see is what you get. I try to treat everyone with respect.

I'm in mourning for my life.

I never took a lesson until I was 20, and I'm glad I had those years living the life of a normal person. I don't consider that time wasted.

There's never any percentage in being ahead of your time.

No matter what the situation may be, there is always something positive you can do about it.

If I behave as though this is a completely normal situation, then maybe it will be.
