“Seek to live. Remembrance is for the old.”
By The River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept • Paulo Coelho“But the soul which has been polluted, and is impure at the time of her departure, and is the companion and servant of the body always, and is in love with and fascinated by the body and by the desires and pleasures of the body, until she is led to believe that the truth exists only in bodily form, which a man may touch and see and taste and use for the purposes of his lusts—the soul, I mean, accustomed to hate and fear and avoid the intellectual principle, which to the bodily eye is dark and invisible, and can be attained only by philosophy—do you suppose that such a soul as this will depart pure and unalloyed?”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato“For what do we live, but to make sport for our neighbors and laugh at them in our turn?”
Pride and Prejudice • Jane Austen“These are just a few samples; for more quotes from this work, see Crime and Punishment”
Crime And Punishment • Fyodor Dostoevski“There are moments when troubles enter our lives and we can do nothing to avoid them. But they are there for a reason. Only when we have overcome them will we understand why they were there.”
The Fifth Mountain • Paulo Coelho
