“My tunic is my flag.”

“The first rule of the new school of life is to sit on the floor. The second rule is to wear sandals. The third rule is to walk barefoot.”

“Why should I want to be civilized?”

“To think, to speak, and to act are the three great joys of life.”

“Art is not a thing; it is a way.”

“Action is the supreme authority.”

“What is civilization? It is a system under which a man gives up all his natural rights in exchange for artificial privileges.”

“The machine is the enemy of life.”

“True work is the expression of a man's joy in his work.”

“Every movement should be a prayer or a poem.”
