The Instructed Man Is Ashamed To Pronounce

As Against Having Beautiful Workshops, Studies, Etc., One Writes Best In A Cellar On A Rainy Day.

Nothing Is Sadder Than The Consequences Of Having Worldly Standards Without Worldly Means.

A Man Who Has The Courage Of His Platitudes Is Always A Successful Man. The Instructed Man Is Ashamed To Pronounce In An Orphic Manner What Everybody Knows, And Because He Is Silent People Think He Is Making Fun Of Them. They Like A Man Who Expresses Their Own Superficial Thoughts In A Manner That Appears To Be Profound. This Enables Them To Feel That They Are Themselves Profound.

If Men Were Basically Evil, Who Would Bother To Improve The World Instead Of Giving It Up As A Bad Job At The Outset?

Better The Fragrant Herb Of Wit And A Little Cream Of Affability Than All The Pretty Cups In The World.
