“"Who, in this tired and overworked family, would have had time to give more attention to Gregor than was absolutely necessary?"”
Metamorphosis and Other Stories • Franz Kafka“This monster of a land, this mightiest of nations, this spawn of the future, turns out to be the macrocosm of microcosm me.”
Travels with Charley: In Search of America • John Steinbeck“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“Cathy's lies were never innocent. Their purpose was to escape punishment, or work, or responsibility, and they were used for profit. Most liars are tripped up either because they forget what they have told or because the lie is suddenly faced with an incontrovertible truth. But Cathy did not forget her lies, and she developed the most effective method of lying. She stayed close enough to the truth so that one could never be sure. She knew two other methods also -- either to interlard her lies with truth or to tell a truth as though it were a lie. If one is accused of a lie and it turns out to be the truth, there is a backlog that will last a long time and protect a number of untruths.”
East Of Eden • John Steinbeck“When you have to kill a man it costs nothing to be polite.”
Never Give In! • Winston S Churchill
