In a country of ideas, consciousness is its' citizen.

In stating these matters, I speak an open and disinterested language, dictated by no passion but that of humanity. To me, who have not only refused offers, because I thought them improper, but have declined rewards I might with reputation have accepted, it is no wonder that meanness and imposition appear disgustful. Independence is my happiness, and I view things as they are, without regard to place or person; my country is the world, and my religion is to do good.

Why wait for your happiness to come from your future blessings, when this moment already has all you need to live happily?

I don't care a damn about men who are loyal to the people who pay them, to organizations...I don't think even my country means all that much. There are many countries in our blood, aren't there, but only one person. Would the world be in the mess it is if we were loyal to love and not to countries?

An evil mind will always live with the ghosts of its decisions and actions.

We need to teach our nation to detest any form of plots, insinuations, evil intrigues and violence.
