3. Knowledge gives us power; Love gives us perfection.
4. When we think we know we stop learning.
5. God lives, feels and suffers in each of us, and over time, His virtues, wisdom, beauty and love will manifest in each of us.
6. The end product of education should be an independent creative individual, able to fight the historical conditions and adversities of nature.
7. True religion is a revolutionary force: it is the staunch enemy of oppression, privilege and injustice.
8. The main function of the university is not to award degrees and diplomas but to develop the spirit of the university and advance education. The first is impossible without corporate life, the second without honors and post-graduation.
9. Dissatisfaction with the real is a necessary precondition for every moral transformation and spiritual rebirth.
10. Teachers must be the best minds in the country.
11. It is not God who is worshiped, but the authority who claims to speak in his name. Sin becomes a disobedience of authority, not a violation of integrity.
12. The greatest sinner also has a future, just as the greatest saint has a past. No one is as good or bad as one thinks.
13. It takes centuries to make a little history; It takes centuries of history to build a tradition.
