“While our art cannot, as we wish it could, save us from wars, privation, envy, greed, old age, or death, it can revitalize us amidst it all.”

“Science-fiction balances you on the cliff. Fantasy shoves you off.”

“Disbelief is catching. It rubs off on people.”

“For the things we have to learn before we can do, we learn by doing.”

“Eating and reading are two pleasures that combine admirably.”

“Isn't it a pleasure to study and practice what you have learned?”

“The end then of learning is to repair the ruins of our first parents.”

“One must learn to know oneself before knowing anything else.”

“And how do you teach thou shalt not kill? By killing.”
