“How many, once lauded in song, are given over to the forgotten; and how many who sung their praises are clean gone long ago!”
Book VII • Marcus Aurelius“Rascals are always sociable--more's the pity! and the chief sign that a man has any nobility in his character is the little pleasure he takes in others' company. He prefers solitude more and more, and, in course of time, comes to see that, with few exceptions, the world offers no choice beyond solitude on one side and vulgarity on the other.”
Essays and Aphorisms • Arthur Schopenhauer““So, attend carefully to your posture. Quit drooping and hunching around. Speak your mind. Put your desires forward, as if you had a right to them — at least the same right as others. Walk tall and gaze forthrightly ahead. Dare to be dangerous. Encourage the serotonin to flow plentifully through neural pathways desperate for its calming influence.””
12 Rules For Life: An Antidote To Chaos • Jordan B. Peterson“There are moments when troubles enter our lives and we can do nothing to avoid them. But they are there for a reason. Only when we have overcome them will we understand why they were there.”
The Fifth Mountain • Paulo Coelho“″‘How do you like falling in?’ said the princess. ‘Beyond everything,’ answered he; ‘for I have fallen in with the only perfect creature I ever saw.’”
The Prince • Niccolo Machiavelli
