It's a huge disservice to classify all minds as either closed or open. I find the best minds are closed by openable windows.

Nightmares are seldom a foreshadowing of real events, but always a showing of real fears.

Rather than swallowing our pride and simply asking what we do not know, we choose to fill in the blanks ourselves and later become humbled. Wisdom was often, in its youth, proven foolish, and ones humiliated were meant to become wise.

To swear day and night by media slander will make one a bigger victim than the slandered. It doesn't take much to begin to fear a mere illusion of human badness.

If what you create seems to turn out much stranger than who you are as a person, it's probably because your heart is talking.

People don't care about being duped as long as they're happy, which is the shortest form of happiness; hence 'self-duprication' becomes a habit.

The sea in all its vastness is its own, real world. Man is nature's sci-fi.

The self-centered man will always expect nothing but praise. He will hope and expect all incoming criticism to be mere self-projection from the critic because when you're self-centered, self-projection is all you can imagine one can do.

Growing up I often wondered how the world would be today if, since the beginning of human life, every person acted as I did.
