“Those whom fate has dealt hard knocks remain vulnerable for ever afterwards.”
Beware of Pity • Stefan Zweig“If the ethical – that is, social morality – is the highest ... then no categories are needed other than the Greek philosophical categories.”
Fear and Trembling • Soren Kierkegaard“It is permissible even for a dying hero to think before he dies how men will speak of him hereafter. His fame lasts perhaps two thousand years. And what are two thousand years?... What, indeed, if you look from a mountain top down the long wastes of the ages? The very stone one kicks with one's boot will outlast Shakespeare.”
To the Lighthouse • Virginia Woolf“The most miserable mortals are they that deliver themselves up to their palates, or to their lusts; the pleasure is short, and turns presently nauseous, and the end of it is either shame or repentance.”
Day's Collacon • Lucius Annaeus Seneca“In reality, hope is the worst of all evils, because it prolongs the torments of man.”
Thus Spoke Zarathustra • F Nietzsche
