“When... in the course of all these thousands of years has man ever acted in accordance with his own interests?”

Notes from Underground • Fyodor Dostoevski

“Long-protracted suffering is apt to exhaust not only the invalid, but the compassion of others; violent emotions cannot be prolonged endlessly.”

Beware of Pity • Stefan Zweig

“The greater part of the world's troubles are due to questions of grammar. ”

Essays • Michel De Montaigne

“Men are still men. The despot's wickedness, Comes of ill teaching, and of power's excess-- Comes of the purple he from childhood wears, Slaves would be tyrants if the chance were theirs.”

The Vanished City • VICTOR HUGO

“There is an innocence in admiration; it is found in those to whom it has never yet occurred that they, too, might be admired some day.”

Unpublished fragment • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
