“We love and lose in China,
we weep on England's moors,
and laugh and moan in Guinea,
and thrive on Spanish shores.
We seek success in Finland,
are born and die in Maine.
In minor ways we differ,
in major we're the same.”

“I believe in you my soul, the other I am must not abase itself to you,
And you must not be abased to the other.
Loaf with me on the grass, loose the stop from your throat,
Not words, not music or rhyme I want, not custom or lecture, not even the best,
Only the lull I like, the hum of your valved voice.
I mind how once we lay such a transparent summer morning,
How you settled your head athwart my hips, and gently turned over upon me,
And parted the shirt from my bosom bone, and plunged your tongue to my bare-stripped heart,
And reached till you felt my beard, and reached till you held my feet.
Swiftly arose and spread around me the peace and knowledge that pass all the argument of the earth,
And I know that the hand of God is the promise of my own,
And I know that the spirit of God is the brother of my own,
And that all the men ever born are also my brothers, and the women my sisters and lovers,
And that a kelson of the creation is love,
And limitless are leaves stiff or drooping in the fields,
And brown ants in the little wells beneath them,
And mossy scabs of the worm fence, heaped stones, elder, mullein and pokeweed.”

“On ladies' nights they watch frozen-faced while their men embrace and fool about commenting to each other that they are all overgrown boys. Of the love of fellows they know nothing. They cannot love each other in this easy, innocent, spontaneous way because they cannot love themselves.”

“Not all angels come from above. Some are beside you or around you even as we speak. Then why can't we see them? Because we are too busy searching for them elsewhere. We won't find them unless we stop looking for them amongst the demons or in our prayers offered to the Gods. Open your eyes, perceive your vicinity and analyse people - only then will you find the true angels.”

“Wisdom is finding the path that is best for all - considering the options, the positives and the negatives - and having the courage to change what must be changed for the sake of the entire world.”

“What if I told you there is no difference between us? The things that outwardly divide us disappear when we look inward, because we’re all made of the exact same energy. The same energy that formed the universe, that is the source of all major world religions, and that flows freely and abundantly through each of us. We each grow into different beliefs, paradigms, and levels of success, but we are all born as “energists”—made of the same divine, perfect, and renewable resource.”

“Чого на Україні споконвіку бракувало, так це єдності. Силу мали, рішучості вистачало, зваги не позичали, самопожертвою вражали, а ось єдності катастрофічне й постійно не вистачало. Зате розбрати і чвари між своїми, як здавалось, ніде в світі рясніше й щедріше не родили — з року в рік, з віку в вік. Тож усі українські повстання, у яке б ми століття не заглянули, незмінно закінчувалися тим, чим вони, зрештою, і мусили закінчуватися, — великою кров'ю і тисячами молодецьких голів, які, злітаючи з плеч широких, перетворювались у звичайнісінькі черепи, так і не спромігшись вибороти волю, до якої іноді досить було зробити всього лише один-єдиний, хоч і рішучий, але останній крок. І нове повстання, що невдовзі визрівало й спалахувало від краю й до краю, вперто не зважало на невдачі попередньої спроби вирватися з ярма. Це ніби якесь прокляття, що постійно висіло над Україною з року в рік, з віку в вік, прирікаючи козаків на все нові й нові безплідні жертви та поразки.”

“En landsvägsluffares värsta problem är inte brödhungern. Bröd finns nog . .. Det är svälten på kvinnor och vänner, som gör hans liv torftigt och icke värt att leva. Det är den som kommer honom att känna sig utom samhället och människornas värld." (Sid. 129)”
