“Eventlessness has no posts to drape duration on. From nothing to nothing is no time at all.”
East Of Eden • John Steinbeck“It's the job that's never started as takes longest to finish.”
The Fellowship of the Ring • J.R.R Tolkien““And even if you were a pawn – maybe we all are – then you should remember that a pawn is the most magical piece of all. It might look small and ordinary but it isn’t. Because a pawn is never just a pawn. A pawn is a queen-in-waiting. All you need to do is find a way to keep moving forward. One square after another. And you can get to the other side and unlock all kinds of power.””
Midnight Library • Matt Haig“Keeping up appearances, living in borrowed finery, wearing masks, the drapery of convention, play-acting for the benefit of others and oneself ... the constant fluttering of human beings around the one flame of vanity is so much the rule and the law that there is virtually nothing which defies understanding so much as the fact that an honest and pure drive towards truth should ever have emerged in them. They are deeply immersed in illusions and dream-images; their eyes merely glide across the surface of things and see 'forms'; nowhere does their perception lead to truth.”
The Gay Science • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche“As we grow old, we become aware that death is drawing near; his shadow falls across our path; the realities of life seem less crude than of yore, they touch our senses less intimately, and they lose much of their poignancy.”
Twenty-Four Hours in the Life of a Woman • Stefan Zweig
