“True intimacy is a human constant. People of all types find it equally hard to achieve, equally precious to hold.

Intimacy is to love what concentration is to work: a simultaneous drawing together to attention and release of energy.”
“Whether the flower or the color is the focus I do not know. I do know the flower is painted large to convey my experience with the flower - and what is my experience if it is not the color?”
“When love is suppressed hate takes its place.”
“If a man will begin with certainties, he shall end in doubts, but if he will content to begin with doubts, he shall end in certainties.”

“What a vast Traffick is drove, what a variety of Labour is performed in the World to the Maintenance of Thousands of Families that altogether depend on two silly if not odious Customs; the taking of Snuff and smoking of Tobacco; both which it is certain do infinitely more hurt than good to those that are addicted to them!”
