“Surrounded by the flames of jealousy, the jealous one winds up, like the scorpion, turning the poisoned sting against himself.”
Thus Spoke Zarathustra • F Nietzsche“In particular, while natural selection favors both males and females that leave many offspring, the best strategy for doing so may be different for fathers and mothers. That generates a built-in conflict between the parents, a conclusion that all too many humans don’t need scientists to reveal to them. We make jokes about the battle of the sexes, but the battle is neither a joke nor an aberrant accident of how individual fathers or mothers behave on particular occasions. It is indeed perfectly true that behavior that is in a male’s genetic interests may not necessarily be in the interests of his female co-parent, and vice versa. That cruel fact is one of the fundamental causes of human misery.”
Why Is Sex Fun?: The Evolution of Human Sexuality • Jared Diamond“The least of things with a meaning is worth more in life than the greatest of things without it.”
Modern Man in Search of a Soul • Carl Gustav Jung“He would say that God had given him a tail to keep the flies off, but that he would sooner have had no tail and no flies.”
Animal Farm • George Orwell“Strange that creatures without backbones have the hardest shells.”
Sand and Foam • Kahlil Gibran
