See All““Neither of the two men, at these times, showed the least hostility toward me, and everything went so smoothly, so amiably, that I had an absurd impression of being ‘one of the family.‘””
Stranger • Albert Camus“Pleasure disappoints, possibility never. And what wine is so sparkling, who so fragrant, what so intoxicating, as possibility.”
Either/Or • Soren Kierkegaard“Paper, they say, does not blush, but I assure you it's not true and that it's blushing just as I am now, all over.”
The Karamazov Brothers • Fyodor Dostoevski“After experiencing profound emotions, one sleeps profoundly.”
Beware of Pity • Stefan Zweig“There is no such thing as a good influence. Because to influence a person is to give him one's own soul. He does not think his natural thoughts, or burn with his natural passions. His virtures are not real to him. His sins, if there are such thing as sins, are borrowed. He becomes an echo of someone else's music, an actor of a part that has not been written for him.”
The Picture of Dorian Gray • Oscar Wilde
