“Never belittle love”
“Only those beneath me can envy or hate me. I have never been envied nor hated; I am above no one. Only those above me can praise or belittle me. I have never been praised nor belittled; I am below no one.”
“New and stirring things are belittled because if they are not belittled the humiliating question arises 'Why then are you not taking part in them?”
“To belittle, you have to be little.”
“Don't belittle yourself. Be BIG yourself.”
“There you go, belittling us again. You must know by now that I've never done any of this for anyone else. I was a slut once with my body, but I've never been a slut with my heart.”
