We live trapped, between the churned-up and examined past and a future that waits for our work.

We are aware only of the empty space in the forest, which only yesterday was filled with trees.

How one can live without being able to judge oneself, criticize what one has accomplished, and still enjoy what one does, is unimaginable to me.

Sometimes the most beautiful thing is precisely the one that comes unexpectedly and unearned, hence something given truly as a present.

I intend to leave after my death a large fund for the promotion of the peace idea, but I am skeptical as to its results.
