“Trzeba to wyznać otwarcie i bez osłony, że lenistwo ducha Polski, cudem z martwych wskrzeszonej, ściągnęło na tego ducha batog bolszewicki. Polska żyła w lenistwie ducha, oplątana przez wszelakie gałgaństwo, paskarstwo, łapownictwo, dorobkiewiczostwo kosztem ogółu, przez jałowy biurokratyzm, dążenie do kariery i nieodpowiedzialnej władzy.
Wszystka wzniosłość, poczęta w duchu za dni niewoli, zamarła w tym pierwszym dniu wolności. Walka o władzę, istniejąca niewątpliwie wszędzie na świecie, jako wyraz siły potęg społecznych, partii, obozów i stronnictw, w Polsce przybrała kształty monstrualne.
Nie ludzie zdolni, zasłużeni, wykształceni, mądrzy, których mamy dużo w kraju, docierali do steru władzy, lecz mężowie partii i obozów, najzdolniejsi czy najsprytniejsi w partii lub obozie. Jak po spuszczeniu wód stawu, ujrzeliśmy obmierzłe rojowisko gadów i płazów.”

“Trên thế giới này, những kẻ gây ra chiến tranh không phải vì họ xấu hay họ làm trái lẽ phải, mà chỉ vì họ không đồng ý kiến hoặc quan niệm với nhau mà thôi. Và người, ai cũng có ý kiến riêng và người nào cũng có lý trong việc làm của họ. Dù người khác cho rằng ý kiến đó sai nhưng đối với họ, điều họ làm chính là lẽ phải. Chỉ vì bất đồng ý kiến mà con người gây gổ nhau, vì cái gì đúng với người này nhưng chưa chắc đã đúng với người khác. Do đó, các quan niệm như phải trái, đúng sai, tốt xấu chỉ có giá trị tương đối, chịu ảnh hưởng của không gian và thời gian. Điều hôm nay đungs thì ngày mai có thể sai; quan niệm ấy tại nơi này thì hữu lý nhưng ở nơi khác là vô lý. Một người hiểu biết phải vượt lên trên sự phân biệt đó và không bap giờ bắt ai phải tuân theo ý kiến của mình. Chỉ có những kẻ thiếu hiểu biết mới điên rồ đòi mọi người phải đồng ý với mình.”

“Três vezes do leme as mãos ergueu,
Três vezes ao leme as reprendeu,
E disse no fim de tremer três vezes:
«Aqui ao leme sou mais do que eu:
Sou um Povo que quer o que é teu;
E mais que o mostrengo, que me a alma teme
E roda nas trevas do fim do mundo,
Manda a vontade, que me ata ao leme,
De El-rei D. João Segundo!»”

“Trăiește în propria ta poveste și viața-ți va fi o eternă fericire!”
