“ "It does not matter how slowly you go so long as you do not stop."”
The Analects of Confucius • Confucius“Know thyself. A maxim as pernicious as it is ugly. Whoever studies himself arrests his own development. A caterpillar who seeks to know himself would never become a butterfly.”
Autumn Leaves • Andre Gide“To tell the truth, I often felt uneasy when I thought of the excessive brittleness and fragility of the moon. The moon is generally repaired in Hamburg, and very imperfectly. It is done by a lame cooper, an obvious blockhead who has no idea how to do it. He took waxed thread and olive-oil—hence that pungent smell over all the earth which compels people to hold their noses. And this makes the moon so fragile that no men can live on it, but only noses. Therefore we cannot see our noses, because they are on the moon.”
Diary of a Madman • Nikolai Gogol“ “I understand that in our work - doesn't matter whether it's acting or writing ."”
Uncle Vanya • Anton Chekhov“On the occasion of every act ask thyself, How is this with respect to me? Shall I repent of it? A little time and I am dead, and all is gone.”
Book VIII • Marcus Aurelius
