“What must I do? I see nothing but obscurities on every side.''Shall I believe I am nothing? Shall I believe I am God?”
“I am learning, and I believe I shall do quite well.”
“Nothing that we do, is done in vain. I believe, with all my soul, that we shall see triumph.”
“But what do you believe? I don't just mean religion. What are you sure of?""That once I was not and that now I am. That one day I shall no longer be.”
“I am a Lolita. I do not believe in growing up. No matter how old I get, I shall remain devoted to ruffles and frills.”
“What I really need is to get clear about what I must do, not what I must know, except insofar as knowledge must precede every act. What matters is to find a purpose, to see what it really is that God wills that I shall do; the crucial thing is to find a truth which is truth for me, to find the idea for which I am willing to live and die.”
