“Anything devised by man has bureaucracy, corrpution and error hardwired at inception.”
“To free a man from error is not to deprive him of anything but to give him something: for the knowledge that a thing is false is a piece of truth. No error is harmless: sooner or later it will bring misfortune to him who harbours it. Therefore deceive no one, but rather confess ignorance of what you do not know, and leave each man to devise his own articles of faith for himself.”
“The life I should be living had been mislaid through some clerical error by the cosmic bureaucracy.”
“It is an error to imagine that fate can be exhausted, and that one has reached the bottom of anything whatever.”
“A good story cannot be devised; it has to be distilled.”
“Truth as Circe. - Error has transformed animals into men; is truth perhaps capable of changing man back into an animal?”
