“Sin is whatever obscures the soul.”
The Pastoral Symphony • Andre Gide“Its name is Public Opinion. It is held in reverence. It settles everything. Some think it is the voice of God.”
Europe and Elsewhere • Mark Twain“Sometimes a kind of glory lights up the mind of a man. It happens to nearly everyone. You can feel it growing or preparing like a fuse burning toward dynamite. It is a feeling in the stomach, a delight of the nerves, of the forearms. The skin tastes the air, and every deep-drawn breath is sweet. Its beginning has the pleasure of a great stretching yawn; it flashes in the brain and the whole world glows outside your eyes. A man may have lived all his life in the gray, and the land and trees of him dark and somber. The events, even the important ones, may have trooped by faceless and pale. And then — the glory — so that a cricket song sweetens the ears, the smell of the earth rises chanting to his nose, and dappling light under a tree blesses his eyes. Then a man pours outward, a torrent of him, and yet he is not diminished.”
East Of Eden • John Steinbeck“Constantly and, if it be possible, on the occasion of every impression on the soul, apply to it the principles of Physic, of Ethic, and of Dialectic.”
Book VIII • Marcus Aurelius“Taking responsibilities for our problems is far more important, because that where the real learning comes from.”
The Subtle Art Of Not Giving A F*Ck • Mark Manson
