“ “Merely to be alone, not to be beaten or questioned, to have enough to eat, and to be clean all over, was completely satisfying.””
1984 • George Orwell““The ability to subordinate an impulse to a value is the essence of the proactive person.””
The 7 Habits Of Highly Effective People • Stephen R. Covey“Only the educated are free.”
Discourses • Epictetus“You say "society must exact vengeance, and society must punish." Wrong on both counts. Vengeance comes from the individual and punishment from God.”
The Last Day of a Condemned Man • VICTOR HUGO“Don't aim at success — the more you aim at it and make it a target, the more you are going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue, and it only does so as the unintended side-effect of one's personal dedication to a cause greater than oneself or as the by-product of one's surrender to a person other than oneself. Happiness must happen, and the same holds for success: you have to let it happen by not caring about it. I want you to listen to what your conscience commands you to do and go on to carry it out to the best of your knowledge. Then you will live to see that in the long run — in the long run, I say — success will follow you precisely because you had forgotten to think of it.”
