- Freedom begins in the mind and is self-perpetuated
- The only reason for a man to be proud is his choice to retain his ignorance of the fact that talents and gifts are derived from a source completely beyond his own personal achievement or self-perpetuation.

- There is no better reason for a man to commit evil than the virtuous erroneous knowledge that he is doing it for the greater good.

- The “Powers That Be” have, up to and including this point, allowed me the privilege of ignorance; that I believe I may, through the gleaning of knowledge, prove those who believe not in the Powers That Be, to believe - by the pure lack of an alternative; proven by empirical and rational findings.
- Embrace an idea completely or reject it entirely. It matters not to me. Only, know what exactly it is that you are embracing or rejecting.
- I applaud your artistic creation, yet only as an artistic manipulation of what has been previously created.
... The original idea for "Fool's Proverbs" is the simple concept that because I am human, I am fool. Wisdom comes only from the Creator. Thus within my proverbs, any ostensible wisdom is derived wholly from my Creator.
