“Shun no toil to make yourself remarkable by some talent or other; yet do not devote yourself to one branch exclusively; strive to get clear notions about all; give up no science entirely, for science is but one.”
Day's Collacon • Lucius Annaeus Seneca“Being is unrecognizable unless it manages to seem, and seeming is feeble unless it manages to be.”
Gorgias • Plato““This is to be asserted in general of men, that they are ungrateful, fickle, false, cowardly, covetous.””
The Prince • Niccolo Machiavelli“Whenever I find myself growing grim about the mouth; whenever it is a damp, drizzly November in my soul; whenever I find myself involuntarily pausing before coffin warehouses, and bringing up the rear of every funeral I meet; and especially whenever my hypos get such an upper hand of me, that it requires a strong moral principle to prevent me from deliberately steppint into the street, and methodically knocking people's hats off--then, I account it high time to get to sea as soon as I can.”
Moby Dick • Herman Melville“Life's greatest happiness is to be convinced we are loved.”
Les Misérables • VICTOR HUGO
