symbols are more meaningful than things themselves
taking a strong stand publicizes the opposite position
teasing people sexually can have ugly consequences
the cruelest disappointment is when you let yourself down
the family is living on borrowed time
the idea of transcendence is used to obscure oppression
the most profound things are inexpressible
the mundane is to be cherished
the new is nothing but a restatement of the old
the sum of your actions determines what you are
the unattainable is invariably attractive
threatening someone sexually is a horrible act
to disagree presupposes moral integrity
to volunteer is reactionary
torture is barbaric
unique things must be the most valuable
when something terrible happens people wake up
wishing things away is not effective
words tend to be inadequate
worrying can help you prepare
you are a victim of the rules you live by
you are responsible for constituting the meaning of things
you can't expect people to be something they're not
you can't fool others if you're fooling yourself
you must disagree with authority figures
you must have one grand passion
you must know where you stop and the world begins
you owe the world not the other way around
you should study as much as possible
your oldest fears are the worst ones
