The Art of Living • Epictetus““Do you see that tree? It is dead but it still sways in the wind with the others."”
The Duel • Anton Chekhov“If I had a humble spirit in my service who, when I asked for a glass of water, brought me the world's costliest wines blended in a chalice, I should dismiss him, in order to teach him that my pleasure consists, not in what I enjoy, but in having my own way.”
Either/Or • Soren Kierkegaard“A man of limited vision is hard to bear with in any sphere in which he is invested with power, but intolerable in the army.”
