““You can satisfy the people, for their object is more righteous than that of the nobles, the latter wishing to oppress, while the former only desire not to be oppressed.””
The Prince • Niccolo Machiavelli“Success is the product of daily habits—not once-in-a-lifetime transformations.”
Atomic Habits • James Clear“„One thing, however, did become clear to him [Goldmund] – why so many perfect works of art did not please him at all, why they were almost hateful and boring to him, in spite of a certain undeniable beauty. Workshops, churches, and palaces were full of these fatal works of art; he had even helped with a few himself. They were deeply disappointing because they aroused the desire for the highest and did not fulfill it. They lacked the most essential thing – mystery. That was what dreams and truly great works of art had in common: mystery.“”
Narcissus and Goldmund • Hermann Hesse“If you find yourself consistently giving too many fucks about trivial shit that bothers you, chances are you don’t have much going on in your real life to give a legitimate fuck about. And that’s your real problem.”
The Subtle Art Of Not Giving A F*Ck • Mark Manson“Throughout life, our worst weaknesses and meannesses are usually committed for the sake of the people we most despise.”
Old Curiosity Shop • Charles Dickens
