See All“The eyes of others our prisons; their thoughts our cages.”
Monday or Tuesday • Virginia Woolf“What is the meaning of life?... A simple question; one that tended to close in on one with years. The great revelation had never come. The great revelation perhaps never did come. Instead there were little daily miracles, illuminations, matches struck unexpectedly in the dark.”
To the Lighthouse • Virginia Woolf“A little in one's own pocket is better than much in another man's purse.”
Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes“It has become customary to say that a man needs only six feet of land. But a corpse needs six feet, not a person.”
Seagull • Anton Chekhov“No one knows how greatness comes to a man. It may lie in his blackness, sleeping, or it may lance into him like those driven fiery particles from outer space. These things, however, are known about greatness: need gives it life and puts it in action; it never comes without pain; it leaves a man changed, chastened, and exalted at the same time--he can never return to simplicity.”
Sweet Thursday • John Steinbeck
