“[One of the company... said: ...is not this the direct contrary of what we admitted before—that out of the greater came the less and out of the less the greater, and that opposites are simply generated from opposites; whereas now this seems to be utterly denied.] ...then we were speaking of opposites in the concrete, and now of the essential opposite which, as is affirmed, neither in us nor in nature can ever be at variance with itself... these essetial opposites will never, as we maintain, admit of generation into or out of one another.”

The Trials Of Socrates • Plato

““It takes careful observation, and education, and reflection, and communication with others, just to scratch the surface of your beliefs.””

12 Rules For Life: An Antidote To Chaos • Jordan B. Peterson

““In my eyes, every murderous case loses its appeal. No matter how beautiful it is, it turns ugly, deteriorates and degrades. No case that allies with death can be justified.””

Samarkand • Amin Maalouf

“A man who lies to himself, and believes his own lies, becomes unable to recognize truth, either in himself or in anyone else, and he ends up losing respect for himself and for others. When he has no respect for anyone, he can no longer love, and in him, he yields to his impulses, indulges in the lowest form of pleasure, and behaves in the end like an animal in satisfying his vices. And it all comes from lying — to others and to yourself.”

The Karamazov Brothers • Fyodor Dostoevski

“It is the act of an ill-instructed man to blame others for his own bad condition; it is the act of one who has begun to be instructed, to lay the blame on himself; and of one whose instruction is completed, neither to blame another, nor himself.”

The Enchiridion • Epictetus
