“Be not careless in deeds, nor confused in words, nor rambling in thought.”
Book VIII • Marcus Aurelius“The Gospels contain a fairy-story, or a story of a larger kind which embraces all the essence of fairy-stories. ... But this story has entered History and the primary world; ... It has pre-eminently the "inner consistency of reality." There is no tale ever told that men would rather find was true, and none which so many sceptical men have accepted as true on its own merits. For the Art of it has the supremely convincing tone of Primary Art, that is, of Creation. ...this story is supreme; and it is true. Art has been verified. God is the Lord, of angels, and of men--and of elves. Legend and History have met and fused.”
On Fairy-Stories • J.R.R Tolkien“What is the ape to man? A laughing-stock or a painful embarrassment. And just the same shall be man to the Übermensch: a laughing-stock or a painful embarrassment.”
Thus Spoke Zarathustra • F Nietzsche“If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.”
The Nightingale and the Rose • Oscar Wilde“A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.”
Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes
