“Art has to reveal to us ideas, formless spiritual essences. The supreme question about a work of art is out of how deep a life does it spring. The painting of Gustave Moreau is the painting of ideas. The deepest poetry of Shelley, the words of Hamlet bring our mind into contact with the eternal wisdom, Plato's world of ideas. All the rest is the speculation of schoolboys for schoolboys.”
Ulysses • James Joyce“[…] it would have made things a lot easier if we understood there was no way of living that can immunize you against sadness. And that sadness is intrinsically part of the fabric of happiness. You can’t have one without the other.”
Midnight Library • Matt Haig“A straight path never leads anywhere except to the objective.”
Journals • Andre Gide“When we love, we always strive to become better than we are. When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too.”
The Alchemist • Paulo Coelho“The mind is a dangerous weapon, even to the possessor, if he knows not discreetly how to use it. ”
Essays • Michel De Montaigne
