“„Mankind are not perfect, but one age is more or less hypocritical than another, and then simpletons say that its morality is high or low.“”
Le Pere Goriot • Honore de Balzac“Can you imagine what I would do if I could do all I can?”
The Art Of War • Sun Tzu“Pain is a coward. He flees when faced by the irresistible power of the will-to-live, which is more strongly rooted in the flesh than the intensest passion is rooted in the spirit.”
Twenty-Four Hours in the Life of a Woman • Stefan Zweig“When does the soul obtain truth?—for in attempting to consider anything in company with the body she is obviously deceived. ...Then must not existence be revealed to her in thought, if at all? ...And thought is best when the mind is gathered into herself and none of these things trouble her—neither sounds nor sights nor pain nor any pleasure—when she has as little as possible to do with the body, and has no bodily sense or feeling, but is aspiring after being? ...And in this the philosopher dishonors the body; his soul runs away from the body and desires to be alone and by herself?”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato“Decisions, not conditions, determine what a man is.”
Man's Search For Meaning • Viktor E Frankl
