“Russian forests crash down under the axe, billions of trees are dying, the habitations of animals and birds are laid waste, rivers grow shallow and dry up, marvelous landscapes are disappearing forever.... Man is endowed with creativity in order to multiply that which has been given him; he has not created, but destroyed. There are fewer and fewer forests, rivers are drying up, wildlife has become extinct, the climate is ruined, and the earth is becoming ever poorer and uglier.”
Seagull • Anton Chekhov“As an enemy is made more fierce by our flight, so pain grows proud to see us truckle under it; she will surrender upon much better terms to those who make head against us.”
Essays • Michel De Montaigne“Fortune, seeing that she could not make fools wise, has made them lucky.”
Essays • Michel De Montaigne“When the enemy is relaxed, make them toil. When full, starve them. When settled, make them move.”
The Art Of War • Sun Tzu“A man can be himself only so long as he is alone; and if he does not love solitude, he will not love freedom; for it is only when he is alone that he is really free.”
Essays and Aphorisms • Arthur Schopenhauer
