“Whatever is in any way beautiful hath its source of beauty in itself, and is complete in itself; praise forms no part of it. So it is none the worse nor the better for being praised.”
Book IV • Marcus Aurelius“Possessions are generally diminished by possession.”
The Gay Science • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche““People take things easily from children.””
My Sweet Orange Tree • José Mauro de Vasconcelos“A learned man is an idler who kills time with study. Beware of his false knowledge: it is more dangerous than ignorance.”
Man and Superman • George Bernard Shaw“Suicide may also be regarded as an experiment — a question which man puts to Nature, trying to force her to answer. The question is this: What change will death produce in a man’s existence and in his insight into the nature of things? It is a clumsy experiment to make; for it involves the destruction of the very consciousness which puts the question and awaits the answer.”
Counsels and Maxims • Arthur Schopenhauer
