“Love that only which happens to thee and is spun with the thread of thy destiny. For what is more suitable?”
Book VII • Marcus Aurelius“A human being who strives for something great considers everyone he meets on his way either as a means or as a delay and obstacle--or as a temporary resting place.”
Beyond Good and Evil • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche“When you surround an army, leave an outlet free. Do not press a desperate foe too hard.”
The Art Of War • Sun Tzu“Remember that there are two kinds of beauty: one of the soul and the other of the body. That of the soul displays its radiance in intelligence, in chastity, in good conduct, in generosity, and in good breeding, and all these qualities may exist in an ugly man. And when we focus our attention upon that beauty, not upon the physical, love generally arises with great violence and intensity. I am well aware that I am not handsome, but I also know that I am not deformed, and it is enough for a man of worth not to be a monster for him to be dearly loved, provided he has those spiritual endowments I have spoken of.”
Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes“Any man may be in good spirits and good temper when he's well dressed.”
Martin Chuzzlewit • Charles Dickens
