“All is ephemeral — fame and the famous as well.”
Book IV • Marcus Aurelius“If you want to be well off and yet easily manage to become something, then forget God, never let yourself really become aware, never let it become really clear to you that it is he who has created you from nothing; proceed on the presupposition that a human being does not have time to waste on keeping in mind the one to whom he infinitely and unconditionally owes everything. ... Forget it and be noisy along with the crowd, laugh or cry, be busy from morning until night, be loved and respected and esteemed as a friend, as a public official, as a king, as a pallbearer. Above all be an earnest person by having forgotten the one and only earnestness, to relate yourself to God, to become nothing.”
Works of Love • Soren Kierkegaard“We live as it were by chance, and by chance we are governed.”
Seneca's Morals • Lucius Annaeus Seneca“Sing away sorrow, cast away care.”
Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes“For neither good nor evil can last for ever; and so it follows that as evil has lasted a long time, good must now be close at hand.”
Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes
