• Sobre todo, no te mientas a ti mismo. El hombre que se miente a sí mismo y escucha su propia mentira llega a un punto en que no puede distinguir la verdad dentro de sí, o a su alrededor, y así pierde todo respeto por sí mismo y por los demás. Y al no tener respeto deja de amar.

• Imagine that you are creating a fabric of human destiny with the object of making men happy in the end, giving them peace and rest at last. Imagine that you are doing this but that it is essential and inevitable to torture to death only one tiny creature...in order to found that edifice on its unavenged tears. Would you consent to be the architect on those conditions? Tell me. Tell the truth.

• El mundo dice: "Tienes necesidades: satisfácelas. Tienes tanto derecho como los ricos y los poderosos. No dudes en satisfacer tus necesidades; es más, amplía tus necesidades y exige más". Esta es la doctrina mundana de hoy. Y creen que esto es libertad. El resultado para los ricos es el aislamiento y el suicidio, para los pobres, la envidia y el asesinato.

• If you are penitent, you love. And if you love you are of God. All things are atoned for, all things are saved by love. If I, a sinner even as you are, am tender with you and have pity on you, how much more will God have pity upon you. Love is such a priceless treasure that you can redeem the whole world by it, and cleanse not only your own sins but the sins of others.

• People talk sometimes of a bestial cruelty, but that's a great injustice and insult to the beasts; a beast can never be so cruel as a man, so artistically cruel. The tiger only tears and gnaws, that's all he can do. He would never think of nailing people by the ears, even if he were able to do it.

• Even there, in the mines, underground, I may find a human heart in another convict and murderer by my side, and I may make friends with him, for even there one may live and love and suffer. One may thaw and revive a frozen heart in that convict, one may wait upon him for years, and at last bring up from the dark depths a lofty soul, a feeling, suffering creature; one may bring forth an angel, create a hero! There are so many of them, hundreds of them, and we are all to blame for them. [...] If they drive God from the earth, we shall shelter Him underground.
