“...why did we wait for any thing? — why not seize the pleasure at once? — How often is happiness destroyed by preparation, foolish preparation!”
Emma • Jane Austen““The critics suppose that it is easy to write a play."”
Seagull • Anton Chekhov“Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of human freedoms - to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way.”
Man's Search For Meaning • Viktor E Frankl“Where have they gone, the brilliant, the insightful ones, the proud? ”
Book VIII • Marcus Aurelius“I have claimed that Escape is one of the main functions of fairy-stories, and since I do not disapprove of them, it is plain that I do not accept the tone of scorn or pity with which 'Escape' is now so often used. Why should a man be scorned if, finding himself in prison, he tries to get out and go home? Or if he cannot do so, he thinks and talks about other topics than jailers and prison-walls?”
On Fairy-Stories • J.R.R Tolkien
