The Lily Of The Valley • Honore de Balzac““Winning people is an end, self-defense is just a means.””
Samarkand • Amin Maalouf““Is there anything surprising in one who passes from divine contemplations to the evil state of man, misbehaving himself in a ridiculous manner; if, while his eyes are blinking and before he has become accustomed to the surrounding darkness, he is compelled to fight in courts of law, or in other places, about the images or the shadows of images of justice, and is endeavouring to meet the conceptions of those who have never yet seen absolute justice?””
Republic • Plato“„It is not our purpose to become each other; it is to recognize each other, to learn to see the other and honor him for what he is: each the other's opposite and complement.“”
Narcissus and Goldmund • Hermann Hesse
