“Then I heard someone who had a book of Anaxagoras, as he said, out of which he read that the mind was the disposer and cause of all... and I said to myself: If mind is the disposer, mind will dispose all for the best, and put each particular in the best place; and I argued that if anyone desired to find out the cause of the generation or destruction of anything, he must find out what state of being or suffering or doing was best for that thing, and therefore a man had only consider the best for himself and others, and then he would also know the worse, for that the same science comprised both.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato““You must determine where you are going in your life, because you cannot get there unless you move in that direction. Random wandering will not move you forward. It will instead disappoint and frustrate you and make you anxious and unhappy and hard to get along with (and then resentful, and then vengeful, and then worse).””
12 Rules For Life: An Antidote To Chaos • Jordan B. Peterson“Sure, cried the tenant men, but it's our land. We measured it and broke it up. We were born on it, and we got killed on it, died on it. Even if it's no good, it's still ours. That's what makes it ours-being born on it, working it, dying on it.”
The Grapes of Wrath • John Steinbeck“My dreams are the problems of the day stepped up to absurdity, a little like men dancing, wearing the horns and masks of animals.”
The Winter of Our Discontent • John Steinbeck“The elastic heart of youth cannot be compressed into one constrained shape long at a time.”
The Adventures of Tom Sawyer • Mark Twain
