Resistance to change is proportional to how much the future might be altered by any given act.
Our own acts are isolated and one act does not buy absolution for another.
Our acts make or mar us, we are the children of our own deeds.
One must speak as much as one can by deeds and say only what one does not know how to do.[Il faut parler tant qu’on peut par les actions, et ne dire que ce qu’on ne sauroit faire.]
In the act of releasing a loved one… you taste what it is to be turned. To go against everything you are. That act changes one forever.
If by Godot I had meant God I would have said God, and not Godot.
He who desires, but acts not, breeds pestilence.
Every act of perception, is to some degree an act of creation, and every act of memory is to some degree an act of imagination.
All great deeds and all great thoughts have a ridiculous beginning. Great works are often born on a streetcomer or in a restaurant’s revolving door.[Toutes les grandes actions et toutes les grandes pensées ont un commencement dérisoire. Les grandes œuvres naissent souvent au détour d’une rue ou dans le tambour d’un restaurant.]
A good act does not wash out the bad, nor a bad act the good. Each should have its own reward.
