““God is the same for all men, only men are different.””
The Duel • Anton Chekhov“Men are still men. The despot's wickedness, Comes of ill teaching, and of power's excess-- Comes of the purple he from childhood wears, Slaves would be tyrants if the chance were theirs.”
The Vanished City • VICTOR HUGO“The skeleton of habit alone upholds the human frame.”
Mrs. Dalloway • Virginia Woolf““What scholars came, what did they find! Like candles they shed light on the world. Which one broke through this darkness? They told a tale and fell asleep.””
Samarkand • Amin Maalouf“Rascals are always sociable--more's the pity! and the chief sign that a man has any nobility in his character is the little pleasure he takes in others' company. He prefers solitude more and more, and, in course of time, comes to see that, with few exceptions, the world offers no choice beyond solitude on one side and vulgarity on the other.”
Essays and Aphorisms • Arthur Schopenhauer
