“Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown”
Henry IV • William Shakespeare“For whoever has what he has from the God himself clearly has it at first hand; and he who does not have it from the God himself is not a disciple. Let us assume that it is otherwise, that the contemporary generation of disciples had received the condition from the God, and that the subsequent generations were to receive it from these contemporaries – what would follow?”
Philosophical Fragments • Soren Kierkegaard“People talk sometimes of bestial cruelty, but that's a great injustice and insult to the beasts; a beast can never be so cruel as a man, so artistically cruel.”
The Karamazov Brothers • Fyodor Dostoevski“Some people go to priests; others to poetry; I to my friends, I to my own heart, I to seek among phrases and fragments something unbroken — I to whom there is not beauty enough in moon or tree; to whom the touch of one person with another is all, yet who cannot grasp even that, who am so imperfect, so weak, so unspeakably lonely.”
The Waves • Virginia Woolf““If you do not know how to love, what good is the rising and setting of the sun?””
Samarkand • Amin Maalouf
