See All“An engaged woman is always more agreeable than a disengaged. She is satisfied with herself. Her cares are over, and she feels that she may exert all her powers of pleasing without suspicion. All is safe with a lady engaged: no harm can be done.”
Mansfield Park • Jane Austen“Wherever there is a man who exercises authority, there is a man who resists authority.”
De Profundis • Oscar Wilde“A man should keep his little brain attic stocked with all the furniture that he is likely to use, and the rest he can put away in the lumber-room of his library, where he can get it if he wants it.”
The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes • Arthur Conan Doyle“The discovery of truth is prevented more effectively, not by the false appearance things present and which mislead into error, not directly by weakness of the reasoning powers, but by preconceived opinion, by prejudice.”
Counsels and Maxims • Arthur Schopenhauer“Fathers and teachers, I ponder, "What is hell?" I maintain that it is the suffering of being unable to love.”
The Karamazov Brothers • Fyodor Dostoevski
