Action without a name, a who attached to it, is meaningless.

Summary

This quote suggests that actions hold no significance unless they are associated with an identity or a purpose. Merely taking action without knowing who is responsible or why it is being done lacks meaning and purpose. It emphasizes the importance of taking ownership and being accountable for our actions. It implies that actions become meaningful only when they are executed with intention and connected to a larger context or purpose.

It is quiet here and restful and the air is delicious. There are gardens everywhere and police spies lie in the bushes. There are nightingales in every garden, but police spies only in mine, I think. They sit under my windows in the darkness of the night and try to get a glimpse of how I spread sedition in Russia.

Judgments, value judgments concerning life, for or against, can in the last resort never be true: they possess value only as symptoms, they come into consideration only as symptoms -- in themselves such judgments are stupidities.

In fact, the only sin which we never forgive in each other is difference of opinion.
