“No one wants advice, only corroboration.”
The Winter of Our Discontent • John Steinbeck“The sweetness of many things from that time still stirs and touches me with melancholy: dark and well-lighted alleys, houses and towers, chimes and faces, rooms rich and comfortable, warm and relaxed, rooms pregnant with secrets. Everything bears the scent of warm intimacy, servant girls, household remedies, and dried fruits.”
Demian • Hermann Hesse“The year 2000: April 43rd.—To-day is a day of splendid triumph. Spain has a king; he has been found, and I am he.”
Diary of a Madman • Nikolai Gogol“Every living creature is happy when he fulfills his destiny, that is, when he realizes himself, when he is being that which in truth he is. For this reason, Schlegel, inverting the relationship between pleasure and destiny, said, “We have a genius for what we like.” Genius, man’s superlative gift for doing something, always carries a look of supreme pleasure.”
What is Philosophy? • Jose Ortega y Gasset“”‘I am on your side. But you have no way of knowing it, because your heart is blind.‘””
Stranger • Albert Camus
