Thyestes • Lucius Annaeus Seneca“Seize the moments of happiness, love and be loved! That is the only reality in the world, all else is folly.”
War and Peace • Leo Tolstoy“In the course of my life I have often had intimations in dreams "that I should make music." The same dream came to me sometimes in one form, and sometimes in another, but always saying the same or nearly the same words: Make and cultivate music, said the dream. And hitherto I imagined that this was only intended to exhort and encourage me in the study of philosophy, which has always been the pursuit of my life, and is the noblest and best of music.”
