See All“How very paltry and limited the normal human intellect is, and how little lucidity there is in the human consciousness, may be judged from the fact that, despite the ephemeral brevity of human life, the uncertainty of our existence and the countless enigmas which press upon us from all sides, everyone does not continually and ceaselessly philosophize, but that only the rarest of exceptions do.”
Counsels and Maxims • Arthur Schopenhauer“I wear the chain I forged in life....I made it link by link, and yard by yard; I girded it on of my own free will, and of my own free will I wore it.”
A Christmas Carol • Charles Dickens“Only the shallow know themselves.”
Phrases and Philosophies for the use of the Young • Oscar Wilde“Monsters are variations from the accepted normal to a greater or a less degree. As a child may be born without an arm, so one may be born without kindness or the potential of conscience.”
East Of Eden • John Steinbeck“War should be carried on like a monsoon; one changeless determination of every particle towards the one unalterable aim.”
Israel Potter • Herman Melville
