“Art is Individualism, and Individualism is a disturbing and disintegrating force. Therein lies its immense value. For what it seeks to disturb is monotony of type, slavery of custom, tyranny of habit, and the reduction of man to the level of a machine.”

The Soul of Man Under Socialism • Oscar Wilde

“The things you think about determine the quality of your mind. Your soul takes on the color of your thoughts. ”

Book V • Marcus Aurelius

“When people agree with me I always feel that I must be wrong.”

The Critic as Artist • Oscar Wilde

“In former days, when wars arose from individual causes, from the policy of a Minister or the passion of a King, when they were fought by small regular armies of professional soldiers, and when their course was retarded by the difficulties of communication and supply, and often suspended by the winter season, it was possible to limit the liabilities of the combatants. But now, when mighty populations are impelled on each other, each individual severally embittered and inflamed—when the resources of science and civilisation sweep away everything that might mitigate their fury, a European war can only end in the ruin of the vanquished and the scarcely less fatal commercial dislocation and exhaustion of the conquerors. Democracy is more vindictive than Cabinets. The wars of peoples will be more terrible than those of kings.”

Never Give In! • Winston S Churchill

““It is the quality of time at work that counts and the quantity of time at home that matters.””

Eat That Frog! • Brian Tracy
