“In this life our sorrows are either not very long or not very great because nature either overcomes them by habits or puts an end to them by sinking under their weight. But in hell the torments cannot be overcome by habit, for while they are of terrible intensity they are at the same time of continual variety, each pain, so to speak, taking fire from another and re-endowing that which has enkindled it with a still fiercer flame.”
A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man • James Joyce“An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile — hoping it will eat him last.”
Never Give In! • Winston S Churchill“Everything in the world is about sex except sex. Sex is about power.”
Lying Fully Clothed • Oscar Wilde“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.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato“Success, like happiness, is the unexpected side effect of one's personal dedication to a cause greater than oneself.”
Man's Search For Meaning • Viktor E Frankl
