“Let each man take the path according to his capacity, understanding and temperament. His true guru will meet him along that path.”

“Man, as a form, bears within him the eternal principle of being, and by economic movement along his endless path his form is also transformed, just as everything that lives in nature was transformed in him.”

“Each man follows his own path - his own destiny, if you will. And only he is responsible for the choice.”

“Each man's life represents a road toward himself, an attempt at such a road, the intimation of a path... But each of us - experiments of the depths - strives toward his own destiny. We can understand one another; but each of us is able to interpret himself to himself alone.”

“I was interested in this because it bore out an opinion of mine that philosophy is an affair of character rather than of logic: the philosopher believes not according to evidence, but according to his own temperament; and his thinking merely serves to make reasonable what his instinct regards as true.”

“A man's religious choice didn't matter in the least if it was his path to decency and remembering his fellow man.”
