“My loneliness was born when men praised my talkative faults and blamed my silent virtues.”
Sand and Foam • Kahlil Gibran“To be sure, man's search for meaning may arouse inner tension rather than inner equilibrium. However, precisely such tension is an indispensable prerequisite of mental health. There is nothing in the world, I venture to say, that would so effectively help one to survive even the worst conditions as the knowledge that there is a meaning in one's life. There is much wisdom in the words of Nietzsche: "He who has a why to live for can bear almost any how”
Man's Search For Meaning • Viktor E Frankl““It was a familiar feeling. This feeling of being incomplete in just about every sense. An unfinished jigsaw of a human.””
Midnight Library • Matt Haig“Nature hath given men one tongue but two ears, that we may hear from others twice as much as we speak.”
Fragment • Epictetus“The teacher reminded us that Rome's liberties were not auctioned off in a day, but were bought slowly, gradually, furtively, little by little; first with a little corn and oil for the exceedingly poor and wretched, later with corn and oil for voters who were not quite so poor, later still with corn and oil for pretty much every man that had a vote to sell--exactly our own history over again.”
Purchasing Civic Virtue • Mark Twain
