Welcome anything that comes to you, but do not long for anything else.
― André Gide -
What another would have done as well as you, do not do it. What another would have said as well as you, do not say it; what another would have written as well, do not write it. Be faithful to that which exists nowhere but in yourself-and thus make yourself indispensable.
― André Gide -

― André Gide -
Work and struggle and never accept an evil that you can change.
― André Gide -
Man is more interesting than men. God made him and not them in his image. Each one is more precious than all.
― André Gide
