“...why did we wait for any thing? — why not seize the pleasure at once? — How often is happiness destroyed by preparation, foolish preparation!”
Emma • Jane Austen“Man's character is his fate.”
Fragments • Heraclitus“If there were a distinguished person whose life, by birth and conditions, belonged especially to the same earthly dissimilarity, a distinguished person who would not assent to this divisive conspiracy against the universally human, that is, against the neighbor, if he did not have the heart to do this, if, clearly perceiving the consequences, he still trusted in God for the strength to bear these consequences while he lacked the strength to harden his heart ... the distinguished corruption would accuse him of being a traitor and self-lover—because he wanted to love the neighbor.”
Works of Love • Soren Kierkegaard“Teach French and unteach sincerity.”
Anna Karenina • Leo Tolstoy“When I play with my cat, who knows whether she is not amusing herself with me more than I with her.”
Essays • Michel De Montaigne
