Quotes

  • Business – the world's work – is the sale of lies:Not goods, but trade-marks; and still more and moreIn every branch becomes the sale of money.
  • One must becomeFanatic – be a wedge – a thunder-boltTo smite a passage through the close-grained world.
  • Mere by-blows are the world and we,And time within eternityA sheer anachronism.
  • Farewell the hope that mocked, farewell despairThat went before me still and made the pace.The earth is full of graves, and mine was thereBefore my life began; my resting-place.
  • Unwilling friend, let not your spite abate;Help me with scorn, and strengthen me with hate.
  • Seraphs and saints with one great voiceWelcomed that soul that knew not fear.Amazed to find it could rejoice,Hell raised a hoarse, half-human cheer.
