“Possessions are generally diminished by possession.”

The Gay Science • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

“Remember that there are two kinds of beauty: one of the soul and the other of the body. That of the soul displays its radiance in intelligence, in chastity, in good conduct, in generosity, and in good breeding, and all these qualities may exist in an ugly man. And when we focus our attention upon that beauty, not upon the physical, love generally arises with great violence and intensity. I am well aware that I am not handsome, but I also know that I am not deformed, and it is enough for a man of worth not to be a monster for him to be dearly loved, provided he has those spiritual endowments I have spoken of.”

Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes

“Practice yourself, for heaven's sake, in little things; and thence proceed to greater.”

Discourses • Epictetus

“How charming it is that there are words and sounds: are not words and sounds rainbows and illusive bridges between things eternally separated?”

Thus Spoke Zarathustra • F Nietzsche

“When we are no longer able to change a situation - we are challenged to change ourselves.”

Man's Search For Meaning • Viktor E Frankl
