“The power of love, as the basis of a State, has never been tried.”

“What has always made the state a hell on earth has been precisely that man has tried to make it heaven.”

“In truth, a State whose society is not sovereign is no sovereign State at all. Such is the case when a society has no chance to decide the common good, and when it has been denied the basic right to share in power and responsibility”

“Here was a flower (the daisy reflected) strangely like itself and yet utterly unlike itself too. Such a paradox has often been the basis for the most impassioned love.”

“My inner goddess confirms that staring at a beautiful/rich/powerful face is the basis of True Love.”

“Although the pure truth has never been stated, nevertheless it has never been lost. Its existence does not depend upon human statement but upon human sensitivity. In this it is unlike all other knowledge.”
