Quote by Andre Gide (1869-1951)

• One doesn't discover new lands without consenting to lose sight of the shore for a very long time.

• There are admirable potentialities in every human being. Believe in your strength and your youth. Learn to repeat endlessly to yourself, 'It all depends on me.'

• It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.

• The most beautiful things are those that madness prompts and reason writes.

• Obtain from yourself all that makes complaining useless. No longer implore from others what you yourself can obtain.

• So long as we live among men, let us cherish humanity.
