“The heart is able to bury deep and well what is urgently desires to forget.”
Beware of Pity • Stefan Zweig““Children learn and develop in multiple ways, but the most common is by imitation.””
Surrounded by Idiots • Thomas Erikson“Every physical quality admired by men in women is in direct connection with the manifold functions of women for the propagation of the species.”
A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man • James Joyce““Then justice is the art which gives good to friends and evil to enemies.””
Republic • Plato“Christianity has done its utmost to close the circle and declared even doubt to be sin. One is supposed to be cast into belief without reason, by a miracle, and from then on to swim in it as in the brightest and least ambiguous of elements: even a glance towards land, even the thought that one perhaps exists for something else as well as swimming, even the slightest impulse of our amphibious nature -- is sin! And notice that all this means that the foundation of belief and all reflection on its origin is likewise excluded as sinful. What is wanted are blindness and intoxication and an eternal song over the waves in which reason has drowned.”
Thoughts on the Prejudices of Morality • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
