“I have claimed that Escape is one of the main functions of fairy-stories, and since I do not disapprove of them, it is plain that I do not accept the tone of scorn or pity with which 'Escape' is now so often used. Why should a man be scorned if, finding himself in prison, he tries to get out and go home? Or if he cannot do so, he thinks and talks about other topics than jailers and prison-walls?”
On Fairy-Stories • J.R.R Tolkien“"For the time being he must remain calm, he must show patience and the greatest consideration so that his family could bear the unpleasantness that he, in his present condition, was forced to impose on them."”
Metamorphosis and Other Stories • Franz Kafka““Goals are the fuel in the furnace of achievement. The bigger your goals and the clearer they are, the more excited you become about achieving them. The more you think about your goals, the greater becomes your inner drive and desire to accomplish them.””
Eat That Frog! • Brian Tracy“To know how to free oneself is nothing; the arduous thing is to know what to do with one's freedom.”
Autumn Leaves • Andre Gide“One cannot be always laughing at a man without now and then stumbling on something witty.”
Pride and Prejudice • Jane Austen
