“Arms are of little value in the field unless there is wise counsel at home.”
On Duties • Marcus Tullius Cicero“Forces beyond your control can take away everything you possess except one thing, your freedom to choose how you will respond to the situation.”
Man's Search For Meaning • Viktor E Frankl“And how does the God's existence emerge from the proof? Does it follow straightway, without any breach of continuity? Or have we not here an analogy to the behavior of the little Cartesian dolls? As soon as I let go of the doll it stands on its head. As soon as I let it go – I must therefore let it go. So also with the proof. As long as I keep my hold on the proof, i.e., continue to demonstrate, the existence does not come out, if for no other reason than that I am engaged in proving it; but when I let the proof go, the existence is there. But this act of letting go is surely also something; it is indeed a contribution of mine. Must not this also be taken into the account, this little moment, brief as it may be – it need not be long, for it is a leap. However brief this moment, if only an instantaneous now, this "now" must be included in the reckoning.”
Philosophical Fragments • Soren Kierkegaard“The tragedy of old age is not that one is old, but that one is young.”
The Picture of Dorian Gray • Oscar Wilde“Stop being who you were and become who you are.”
The Zahir • Paulo Coelho
