“ "Gazing into the darkness, he felt a great pride that he was able to provide a life like that in such a nice home for his sister and parents."”
Metamorphosis and Other Stories • Franz Kafka“Accept suffering and achieve atonement through it — that is what you must do.”
Crime And Punishment • Fyodor Dostoevski“Even as the Sun doth not wait for prayers and incantations to rise, but shines forth and is welcomed by all: so thou also wait not for clapping of hands and shouts and praise to do thy duty; nay, do good of thine own accord, and thou wilt be loved like the Sun.”
Fragment • Epictetus“The controlling Intelligence understands its own nature, and what it does, and whereon it works.”
Book VI • Marcus Aurelius“I was brought up in the Christian religion, and although I can scarcely sanction all the improper attempts to gain the emancipation of woman, all paganlike reminiscences also seem foolish to me.

Any more discursive elaboration of the difference between the sexes or deliberation on which sex is superior is an idle intellectual occupation for loafers and bachelors.”
Stages on Life's Way • Soren Kierkegaard
