We are jointly responsible for the care and raising of the young, since that they be raised is a function, ultimately, of the species.

Take a book, the poorest one written, but read it with the passion that it is the only book you will read-ultimately you will read everything out of it, that is, as much as there was in yourself, and you could never get more out of reading, even if you read the best of books.

Ultimately, literature is nothing but carpentry.
