 My passport photo is one of the most remarkable photographs I have ever seen - no retouching, no shadows, no flattery - just stark me

 One can never pay in gratitude: one can only pay 'in kind' somewhere else in life.

 One cannot collect all the beautiful shells on the beach; one can collect only a few, and they are more beautiful if they are few

 One cannot collect all the beautiful shells on the beach. One can collect only a few, and they are more beautiful if they are few.

 Only in growth, reform, and change, paradoxically enough, is true security to be found.

 Perhaps I am a bear, or some hibernating animal underneath, for the instinct to be half asleep all winter is so strong in me.

 Perhaps middle-age is, or should be, a period of shedding shells; the shell of ambition, the shell of material accumulations and possessions, the shell of the ego

 The intellectual is constantly betrayed by his vanity. Godlike he blandly assumes that he can express everything in words; whereas the things one loves, lives, and dies for are not, in the last analysis completely expressible in words.

 The most exhausting thing in life is insincerity

 The punctuation of anniversaries is terrible, like the closing of doors, one after another between you and what you want to hold on to.

 The wave of the future is coming and there is no fighting it.

 There are no signposts in the sky to show a man has passed that way before. There are no channels marked. The flier breaks each second into new uncharted seas.

 There is no sin punished more implacably by nature than the sin of resistance to change

 What a commentary on civilization, when being alone is being suspect; when one has to apologize for it, make excuses, hide the fact that one practices it - like a secret vice
