“If your ultimate and highest goal is to have life made easy and sociable, then never become involved with Christianity, shun it, because it wants the very opposite; it wants to make your life difficult and to do this by making you alone before God. No earnest person, therefore, wearies of tracking down the illusions, because insofar as he is a thinking person he fears most to be in error, however cozy the arrangement is, however good the company—and as a Christian he fears most to be lost without knowing it—however flattering, however splendid the surroundings and the company are.”
Works of Love • Soren Kierkegaard“A gentleman, even if he loses everything he owns, must show no emotion. Money must be so far beneath a gentleman that it is hardly worth troubling about.”
The Gambler • Fyodor Dostoevski“An honest man's word is as good as his bond.”
Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes“When a man says he does not want to speak of something he usually means he can think of nothing else.”
East Of Eden • John Steinbeck“Man is extraordinarily clever in preventing himself from being happy; it would seem that the less able he is to endure misfortune the more apt he is to attach himself to it.”
Journals • Andre Gide
