To expect truth to come from thinking 

signifies that 

we mistake the need to think with the urge to know.

Under conditions of tyranny 

it is far easier to act than to think.

Storytelling reveals meaning without committing the error of defining it.

The sad truth is that most evil is done by people who never make up their minds to be good or evil.

The most radical revolutionary 

will become a conservative 

the day after the revolution.

Death not merely ends life, 

it also bestows upon it a silent completeness, 

snatched from the hazardous flux 

to which all things human are subject.
