Hermann Hesse
  • To be able to throw one's self away for the sake of a moment, to be able to sacrifice years for a woman's smile - that is happiness.

  • Some of us think holding on makes us strong but sometimes it is letting go.

  • One never reaches home, but wherever friendly paths intersect the whole world looks like home for a time.

  • The truth is lived, not taught.

  • Knowledge can be communicated, but not wisdom. One can find it, live it, be fortified by it, do wonders through it, but one cannot communicate and teach it.
