Twilight of the Idols • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche““Where the willingness is great the difficulties cannot be great.””
The Prince • Niccolo Machiavelli“Mercy often inflicts death.”
Troades • Lucius Annaeus Seneca“Optimism is not only a false but also a pernicious doctrine, for it presents life as a desirable state and man's happiness as its aim and object.

The World As Will and Representation • Arthur Schopenhauer“Luck knows no limits.”
Oedipus • Lucius Annaeus Seneca
