“ "Faced with what is right, to leave it undone shows a lack of courage."”
The Analects of Confucius • Confucius“It might be a basic characteristic of existence that those who would know it completely would perish, in which case the strength of spirit should be measured according to how much of the "truth" one could still barely endure--or to put it more clearly, to what degree one would require it to be thinned down, shrouded, sweetened, blunted, falsified.”
Beyond Good and Evil • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche“Because Demian would have demanded more of me than my parents demanded, much more; by means of inducements and admonitions, sarcasm and irony, he would have tried to make me more self-reliant.”
Demian • Hermann Hesse“All the human and animal manure which the world wastes, if returned to the land, instead of being thrown into the sea, would suffice to nourish the world.”
Les Misérables • VICTOR HUGO“But each person is not only himself, he is also the unique, very special point, important and noteworthy in every instance, where the phenomena of the world meet, once only and never again in the same way.”
Demian • Hermann Hesse
