I do not speak the minds of others except to speak my own mind better.
Bordeaux, France
I study myself more than any other subject. That is my metaphysics; that is my physics.
I do not care so much what I am to others as I care what I am to myself.
The greatest thing in the world is to know how to be oneself.
Insist on yourself; never imitate.
Nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of your own mind.
To believe your own thought, to believe that what is true for you in your private heart is true for all men — that is genius.
