“As a woman I have no country. As a woman I want no country. As a woman, my country is the whole world.”
Three Guineas • Virginia Woolf“Politeness is to human nature what warmth is to wax.”
Counsels and Maxims • Arthur Schopenhauer“Love ought not to make requests,” she said, “but shouldn’t make demands, either. Love must have the strength to reach certainty for itself. Then it no longer undergoes the power of attraction, but exerts it.”
Demian • Hermann Hesse“Variant translation: Nothing in this world is harder than speaking the truth, nothing easier than flattery.”
Crime And Punishment • Fyodor Dostoevski““The heat was beginning to scorch my cheeks; beads of sweat were gathering in my eyebrows. It was just the same sort of heat as at my mother’s funeral, and I had the same disagreeable sensations—especially in my forehead, where all the veins seemed to be bursting through the skin.””
Stranger • Albert Camus
