Tron på en övernaturlig källa till ondska är inte nödvändig - människan ensam är fullt kapabel till alla former av ondska.

Tro på en overnaturlig kilde til ondskab er ikke nødvendig, mennesket alene er fuldt ud i stand til enhver form for ondskab

We live, as we dream alone

Living

Being a woman is a terribly difficult task, since it consists principally in dealing with men.

Kvinner

Woe to the man whose heart has not learned while young to hope, to love - and to put its trust in life.

Menn

He was obeyed, yet he inspired neither love nor fear, nor even respect. He inspired uneasiness. That was it!

It's only those who do nothing that make no mistakes, I suppose
