“The assurance that we have no means of answering [final] questions is no valid excuse for callousness towards them. The more deeply should we feel, down to the roots of our being, their pressure and their sting. Whose hunger has ever been [sated] with the knowledge that he could not eat?”
History as a System • Jose Ortega y Gasset“I has no significance until it becomes the you to whom eternity incessantly speaks and says: you shall, you shall, you shall.”
Works of Love • Soren Kierkegaard“There are a you and an I, and there is no mine and yours! For without a you and an I, there is no love, and with mine and yours there is no love but “mine” and “yours” (these possessive pronouns) are, of course, formed from a “you” and an “I” and as a consequence seem obliged to be present wherever there are a you and an I. This is indeed the case everywhere, but not in love , which is a revolution from the ground up. The more profound the revolution, the more completely the distinction “mine and yours” disappears, and the more perfect is the love.”
Works of Love • Soren Kierkegaard“I say patience, and shuffle the cards.”
Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes““Crying is not a prescription. It’s not a feat. It’s just a simple act. No one should be forced to shed tears. The only thing that matters is not to belittle the misfortune of others.””
Samarkand • Amin Maalouf
