Recommended Books
See All“A hungry people listens not to reason, nor cares for justice, nor is bent by any prayers.”
De Brevitate Vitae • Lucius Annaeus Seneca“Those whom fate has dealt hard knocks remain vulnerable for ever afterwards.”
Beware of Pity • Stefan Zweig“I have been studying the traits and dispositions of the "lower animals" (so called) and contrasting them with the traits and dispositions of man. I find the result humiliating to me.”
Letters from the Earth • Mark Twain“Any decent society must generate a feeling of community. Community offsets loneliness. It gives people a vitally necessary sense of belonging. Yet today the institutions on which community depends are crumbling in all the techno-societies. The result is a spreading plague of loneliness.”
The Third Wave • Alvin Toffler“Nothing is so stifling as symmetry. Symmetry is boredom, the quintessence of mourning. Despair yawns. There is something more terrible than a hell of suffering -- a hell of boredom.”
Les Misérables • VICTOR HUGO
