See All“It is by the goodness of God that in our country we have those three unspeakably precious things: freedom of speech, freedom of conscience, and the prudence never to practice either.”
Following the Equator • Mark Twain“I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year.”
A Christmas Carol • Charles Dickens“Man must not only make himself: the weightiest thing he has to do is to determine what he is going to be. He is causa sui to the second power.”
History as a System • Jose Ortega y Gasset“Not merely in the realm of commerce but in the world of ideas as well our age is organizing a regular clearance sale. Everything is to be had at such a bargain that it is questionable whether in the end there is anybody who will want to bid. Every speculative price-fixer who conscientiously directs attention to the significant march of modern philosophy, every Privatdocent, tutor, and student, every crofter and cottar goes further. Perhaps it would be untimely and ill-timed to ask them where they are going.”
Fear and Trembling • Soren Kierkegaard““Why did people want to rob him of the fame of fasting longer?” ”
A Hunger Artist • Franz Kafka
