“ "We shall hear angels, we shall see the sky sparkling with diamonds."”
Seagull • Anton Chekhov“Time is, time was, but time shall be no more.”
A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man • James Joyce“There is a virtue, Simmias, which is named courage. Is not that a special attribute of the philosopher? ...Again, there is temperance. Is not the calm, and control, and disdain of the passions which even the many call temperance, a quality belonging only to those who despise the body and live in philosophy?”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato“Love gives naught but itself and takes naught but from itself. Love possesses not nor would it be possessed; For love is sufficient unto love.”
The Prophet • Kahlil Gibran“I was brought up in the Christian religion, and although I can scarcely sanction all the improper attempts to gain the emancipation of woman, all paganlike reminiscences also seem foolish to me. My brief and simple opinion is that woman is certainly as good as man-period. Any more discursive elaboration of the difference between the sexes or deliberation on which sex is superior is an idle intellectual occupation for loafers and bachelors.”
Stages on Life's Way • Soren Kierkegaard
