To have humanism we must first be convinced of our humanity. As we move further into decadence this becomes more difficult.

Damn you all. You have no idea what you're heading into. This world you take to be 'the' world will die$$$ and descend into Hell$$$ and all history after that will belong properly to the history of Hell.

A deception that elevates us is dearer than a host of low truths.

We are all subject to the fates. But we must act as if we are not$$$ or die of despair.

Take advice from the ignorant as well as from the wise$$$ since there is no single person who embodies perfection nor any craftsman who has reached the limits of excellence.

There is a rumour going around that I have found God. I think this is unlikely because I have enough difficulty finding my keys$$$ and there is empirical evidence that they exist.

We should try to be happy$$$ just to set an example.

With one day's reading$$$ a man may have the key in his hands.

If a man isn't willing to take some risk for his opinions$$$ either his opinions are no good or he's no good.

Most people$$$ after one success$$$ are so cringingly afraid of doing less well that they rub all the edge off their subsequent work.
