“Never look for birds of this year in the nests of the last.”
Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes“In the little world in which children have their existence whosoever brings them up, there is nothing so finely perceived and so finely felt, as injustice. It may be only small injustice that the child can be exposed to; but the child is small, and its world is small, and its rocking-horse stands as many hands high, according to scale, as a big-boned Irish hunter.”
Great Expectations • Charles Dickens“To tell my story I have to start far in the past. If I could, I’d have to go back much farther yet, to the very earliest years of my childhood and even beyond them to my distant origins.”
Demian • Hermann Hesse“It would have been so pointless to kill himself that, even if he had wanted to, the pointlessness would have made him unable.”
The Trial • Franz Kafka“By patriotism is meant, not only spontaneous, instinctive love for one's own nation, and preference for it above all other nations, but also the belief that such love and preference are good and useful.”
Letter to Polish Journalist • Leo Tolstoy
