“His ear heard more than was said to him, and his slow speech had overtones not of thought, but of understanding beyond thought.”

Of Mice and Men • John Steinbeck

“Men who neglect philosophy while busying themselves with ordinary affairs are like the Suitors [in the Odyssey] who desired Penelope but went to bed with her maids.”

Gorgias • Plato

““She was, as you know already without as yet knowing anything, the Lily of this valley, where she grew for heaven, filling it with the fragrance of her virtues.””

The Lily Of The Valley • Honore de Balzac

“Of all that is written I love only what a man has written with his blood. Write with blood, and you will find that blood is spirit.”

Thus Spoke Zarathustra • F Nietzsche

“Logic may indeed be unshakeable, but it cannot withstand a man who is determined to live. Where was the judge he had never seen? Where was the High Court he had never reached? He raised his hands and spread out all his fingers. But the hands of one of the men closed round his throat, just as the other drove the knife deep into his heart and turned it twice.”

The Trial • Franz Kafka
