“Crows pick out the eyes of the dead, when the dead have no longer need of them; but flatterers mar the soul of the living, and her eyes they blind.”
Fragment • Epictetus“Nothing is more repulsive than a furtively prurient spirituality; it is just as unsavory as gross sensuality.”
Marriage as a Psychological Relationship • Carl Gustav Jung“A man who had two sons ... went to the first and said, "Son, go out and work in my vineyard today." But he answered and said, "I will not," but afterward he repented of it and he went. And the father went to the second and said the same. But he answered, "I will, sir," and he did not go. Which of the two did the will of his father?”
Works of Love • Soren Kierkegaard“Do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends.”
The Fellowship of the Ring • J.R.R Tolkien“Absolute greatness will never be great and also small, but that greatness in us or in the concrete will never admit the small or admit of even being exceeded; instead of this, one of two things will happen—either the greater will fly and retire before the opposite, which is the less, or the advance of the less will cease to exist; but will not, if allowing or admitting smallness, be changed by that...nor can any other opposite which remains the same ever be or become its own opposite, but either passes away or perishes in the change.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato
