We ought to read in such a manner that we appropriate from what we have read the moral lesson that lies hidden behind it. —Georg Brandes
For those of us who are not practitioners, the most important thing we can get from a work of art is a moral lesson.

Of course, I want to be good, but with me it’s rather a human thing.
The angels and saints are happy if you go to Heaven, not unhappy if you go to Hell.
Holy Spirit, Holy Spirit, they say, when there is no Holy Spirit.
