“There are magic moments, involving great physical fatigue and intense motor excitement, that produce visions of people known in the past. As I learned later from the delightful little book of the Abbé de Bucquoy, there are also visions of books as yet unwritten.”
The Name of The Rose • Umberto Eco“A word in earnest is as good as a speech.”
Bleak House • Charles Dickens“No feats of heroism are needed to achieve the greatest and most important changes in the existence of humanity; neither the armament of millions of soldiers, nor the construction of new roads and machines, nor the arrangement of exhibitions, nor the organization of workmen's unions, nor revolutions, nor barricades, nor explosions, nor the perfection of aerial navigation; but a change in public opinion.”
Patriotism and Christianity • Leo Tolstoy“arguments and unhappiness, and when anger overcame me at such times, I was a terror, doing and saying things whose vileness I felt deeply and painfully at the very moment I did”
Demian • Hermann Hesse“Our sex is ultimately laid down by our genes.”
Why Is Sex Fun?: The Evolution of Human Sexuality • Jared Diamond
