“The more destruction there is everywhere, the more it shows the activity of town authorities.”
The Inspector General • Nikolai Gogol“Once your pride gets involved, you’ll fight tooth and nail to maintain your habits.”
Atomic Habits • James Clear“To conceal anything from those to whom I am attached, is not in my nature. I can never close my lips where I have opened my heart.”
Master Humphrey's Clock • Charles Dickens“Our highest assurance of the goodness of Providence seems to me to rest in the flowers. All other things, our powers, our desires, our food, are all really necessary for our existence in the first instance. But this rose is an extra. Its smell and its color are an embellishment of life, not a condition of it. It is only goodness which gives extras, and so I say again that we have much to hope from the flowers.”
The Naval Treaty • Arthur Conan Doyle“Suicide may also be regarded as an experiment -- a question which man puts to Nature, trying to force her to answer. The question is this: What change will death produce in a man’s existence and in his insight into the nature of things? It is a clumsy experiment to make; for it involves the destruction of the very consciousness which puts the question and awaits the answer.”
Parerga and Paralipomena • Arthur Schopenhauer
