I sometimes think that Thomas Cook should be numbered among the secular saints. He took travel from the privileged and gave it to the people.

Existentialism is about being a saint without God being your own hero without all the sanction and support of religion or society.

Some people just use beautiful things to just shop or to have a tribal feeling - 'Oh blah blah blah I'm wearing Hermes blah blah blah I'm wearing Saint Laurent blah-blah blah' - because it's like a need a tribe recognition: 'Ahh my Rolex.'

The history of saints is mainly the history of insane people.

Myself when young did eagerly frequent doctor and saint and heard great argument about it and about: but evermore came out by the same door as in I went.
