See All“Principles have no real force except when one is well fed.”
Adam's Diary • Mark Twain““My turn came next. Marie threw me a kiss. I looked back as I walked away. She hadn’t moved; her face was still pressed to the rails, her lips still parted in that tense, twisted smile.””
Stranger • Albert Camus“God is the middle term. Only by loving God above all else can one love the neighbor. Love for the neighbor is therefore the eternal equality in loving. Equality is simply not to make distinctions and eternal equality is unconditionally not to make the slightest distinction, unqualifiedly not to make the slightest distinction. The essential Christian is itself too weighty, in its movements too earnest to scurry about, dancing, in the frivolity of such facile talk about the higher, highest, and the supremely highest.”
Works of Love • Soren Kierkegaard“All I really wanted was to try and live the life that was spontaneously welling up within me. Why was that so very difficult?”
Demian • Hermann Hesse““Sometimes we go to a play and after the curtain has been up five minutes we have a sense of being able to settle back in the arms of the playwright."”
Seagull • Anton Chekhov
