The Art Of War • Sun Tzu“Only a few individuals succeed in throwing off mythology in a time of a certain intellectual supremacy--the mass never frees itself.”
Psychology of the Unconscious • Carl Gustav Jung“We do not look in great cities for our best morality.”
Mansfield Park • Jane Austen“This question of yours, Sir, about my being a house painter — or rather, not a question, you simply made a statement — is typical of the whole character of this trial that is being foisted on me. You may object that it is not a trial at all; you are quite right, for it is only a trial if I recognize it as such. But for the moment I do recognize it, on grounds of compassion, as it were. One can't regard it except with compassion, if one is to regard it at all. I do not say that your procedure is contemptible, but I should like to present that epithet to you for your private consumption.”
The Trial • Franz Kafka
