“Accept suffering and achieve atonement through it — that is what you must do.”
Crime And Punishment • Fyodor Dostoevski“Often the best in us springs from the worst in us.”
Reflections on Literature and Morality • Andre Gide“Pure and complete sorrow is as impossible as pure and complete joy.”
War and Peace • Leo Tolstoy“Shun no toil to make yourself remarkable by some talent or other; yet do not devote yourself to one branch exclusively; strive to get clear notions about all; give up no science entirely, for science is but one.”
Day's Collacon • Lucius Annaeus Seneca“Keeping up appearances, living in borrowed finery, wearing masks, the drapery of convention, play-acting for the benefit of others and oneself ... the constant fluttering of human beings around the one flame of vanity is so much the rule and the law that there is virtually nothing which defies understanding so much as the fact that an honest and pure drive towards truth should ever have emerged in them. They are deeply immersed in illusions and dream-images; their eyes merely glide across the surface of things and see 'forms'; nowhere does their perception lead to truth.”
The Gay Science • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
