““Sometimes we go to a play and after the curtain has been up five minutes we have a sense of being able to settle back in the arms of the playwright."”
Seagull • Anton Chekhov“„"I shall succeed!" he said to himself. So says the gambler; so says the great captain; but the three words that have been the salvation of some few, have been the ruin of many more.“”
Le Pere Goriot • Honore de Balzac““Did not Atman dwell inside him, did not the primal source flow within his own heart?””
Siddhartha • Hermann Hesse“By the sensuous, the flesh, Christianity understands selfishness. A conflict between spirit and flesh is inconceivable unless there is a rebellious spirit on the side of flesh, with which the spirit then contends; similarly, a conflict between spirit and a stone or between spirit and a tree is inconceivable.”
Works of Love • Soren Kierkegaard““Time has two sides. Its length is determined by the sun’s course, and its depth is determined by passions.””
Samarkand • Amin Maalouf
