“Yet in doubt a man of worth will trust to his own wisdom.”
The Two Towers • J.R.R Tolkien“I'll tell you ... what real love is. It is blind devotion, unquestioning self-humiliation, utter submission, trust and belief against yourself and against the whole world, giving up your whole heart and soul to the smiter -- as I did!”
Great Expectations • Charles Dickens“Man is a synthesis of psyche and body, but he is also a synthesis of the temporal and the eternal. In the former, the two factors are psyche and body, and spirit is the third, yet in such a way that one can speak of a synthesis only when the spirit is posited. The latter synthesis has only two factors, the temporal and the eternal. Where is the third factor? And if there is no third factor, there really is no synthesis, for a synthesis that is a contradiction cannot be completed as a synthesis without a third factor, because the fact that the synthesis is a contradiction asserts that it is not. What, then, is the temporal?”
The Concept of Anxiety • Soren Kierkegaard“If you are going to sell yourself, you should at least get a good price.”
Beware of Pity • Stefan Zweig“My wisdom has long accumulated like a cloud, it becomes stiller and darker. So does all wisdom which shall one day bear lightnings.”
Thus Spoke Zarathustra • F Nietzsche
