“In every cradle decked with rosy wreath Lurk germs of death.”
Hope • VICTOR HUGO“In the name of God, stop a moment, cease your work, look around you.”
Essays and Letters • Leo Tolstoy“Independence is for the very few; it is a privilege of the strong. And whoever attempts it even with the best right but without inner constraint proves that he is probably not only strong, but also daring to the point of recklessness. He enters into a labyrinth, he multiplies a thousandfold dangers which life brings with it in any case, not the least of which is that no one can see how and where he loses his way, becomes lonely, and is torn piecemeal by some minotaur of conscience. Supposing one like that comes to grief, this happens so far from the comprehension of men that they neither feel it nor sympathize. And he cannot go back any longer.”
Beyond Good and Evil • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche“To follow her thought was like following a voice which speaks too quickly to be taken down by one's pencil, and the voice was her own voice saying without prompting undeniable, everlasting, contradictory things.”
To the Lighthouse • Virginia Woolf“ "Luxuries tend to become necessities and to spawn new obligations.””
Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind • Yuval Noah Harari
