““And how can I fly if we are holding hands? And what good is it for us to both fly away? And besides – this is actually the main thought of the above – I’ll never go so far away from you again.” (31 July 1920)”
Letters To Milena • Franz Kafka“True glory strikes root, and even extends itself; all false pretensions fall as do flowers, nor can anything feigned be lasting.”
On Duties • Marcus Tullius Cicero“There are no grades of vanity, there are only grades of ability in concealing it.”
Mark Twain's Notebook • Mark Twain“Strictly speaking, the mass, as a psychological fact, can be defined without waiting for individuals to appear in mass formation. In the presence of one individual we can decide whether he is "mass" or not. The mass is all that which sets no value on itself — good or ill — based on specific grounds, but which feels itself "just like everybody," and nevertheless is not concerned about it; is, in fact, quite happy to feel itself as one with everybody else.”
the Revolt of the Masses • Jose Ortega y Gasset“Democracy substitutes election by the incompetent many for appointment by the corrupt few.”
Maxim for Revolutionists • George Bernard Shaw
