“Wherever there is a man who exercises authority, there is a man who resists authority.”
De Profundis • Oscar Wilde“Nothing is so stifling as symmetry. Symmetry is boredom, the quintessence of mourning. Despair yawns. There is something more terrible than a hell of suffering -- a hell of boredom.”
Les Misérables • VICTOR HUGO“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts.”
Innocents Abroad • Mark Twain“Order is not enough. You can’t just be stable, and secure, and unchanging, because there are still vital and important new things to be learned. Nonetheless, chaos can be too much. You can’t long tolerate being swamped and overwhelmed beyond your capacity to cope while you are learning what you still need to know. Thus, you need to place one foot in what you have mastered and understood and the other in what you are currently exploring and mastering. Then you have positioned yourself where the terror of existence is under control and you are secure, but where you are also alert and engaged. That is where there is something new to master and some way that you can be improved. That is where meaning is to be found.””
12 Rules For Life: An Antidote To Chaos • Jordan B. Peterson“Because there’s an infinite amount of things we can now see or know, there are also infinite number of ways we can discover that we don’t measure up.”
The Subtle Art Of Not Giving A F*Ck • Mark Manson
