Every man is a creature of the age in which he lives; very few are able to raise themselves above the ideas of their times

When men do not have healthy notions of the Divinity, false ideas supplant them, just as in bad times one uses counterfeit money when there is no good money.

Everything persecutes me in this world, even things that do not exist

Man is the creature of circumstances.

I know of nothing more laughable than a doctor who does not die of old age.

Imagination has no age.
