“There is beauty in truth, even if it's painful. Those who lie, twist life so that it looks tasty to the lazy, brilliant to the ignorant, and powerful to the weak. But lies only strengthen our defects. They don't teach anything, help anything, fix anything or cure anything. Nor do they develop one's character, one's mind, one's heart or one's soul.”
― José N. Harris

“Натрупаният опит се събира във фокуса на сегашната фаза на цивилизацията - връх на всички култури. Богатството на този фокус, височината на този връх откриват възможност да се огледат вечните въпроси така, както никога досега. При едно условие - онзи, който се изкачи на този връх, трябва да оттегли упованието си от изкуствените му опори и да се довери както самата Земя на вечните принципи. Тогава чак започва свободното пътуване около слънцето на истината.”
― Danail Hristov, The Natural Science and Biology at the Threshold of the 21st Century

“Every being, created by God and unspoiled by man, is perfect, strictly defined and autonomous, entirely complete and at the same time with a built-in ability to grow and develop. This is the essence of its dignity and holiness. It is not an embodiment of God’s immense Personality, but only one of the realisations of His perfection.”
― Danail Hristov, The End of the Jesus Era

“A man is nothing without dreams. A man is called idiot while he dreams. Whatever he does, he'll be judged and thrown away from the circle of clowns. And yet he needs acceptance and security from sick society, which is discriminatory far too often. But a man is blinded by other people opinions. He wants to fly and they say, “You moron, you can't do that, it's forbidden, it's stupid.” And a man gives up on his dreams.”
― Asper Blurry, Train to the Edge of the Moon
