But how could you live and have no story to tell?
Nothing in the world is harder than speaking the truth and nothing easier than flattery.
Man is sometimes extraordinarily, passionately, in love with suffering.
The darker the night - the brighter the stars,
The deeper the grief - the closer is God!
The awful thing is that beauty is mysterious as well as terrible. God and the devil are fighting there and the battlefield is the heart of man.
