See All“Sin is whatever obscures the soul.”
The Pastoral Symphony • Andre Gide“If there were a distinguished person whose life, by birth and conditions, belonged especially to the same earthly dissimilarity, a distinguished person who would not assent to this divisive conspiracy against the universally human, that is, against the neighbor, if he did not have the heart to do this, if, clearly perceiving the consequences, he still trusted in God for the strength to bear these consequences while he lacked the strength to harden his heart ... the distinguished corruption would accuse him of being a traitor and self-lover—because he wanted to love the neighbor.”
Works of Love • Soren Kierkegaard“A map of the world that does not include Utopia is not worth even glancing at, for it leaves out the one country at which Humanity is always landing.”
The Soul of Man Under Socialism • Oscar Wilde“They who have a care of their souls, and do not merely live in the fashions of the body, say farewell to all this; they will not walk in the ways of the blind: and when philosophy offers them purification and release from evil, they feel that they ought not resist her influence, and to her they incline, and whither she leads they follow her.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato“A man is not idle because he is absorbed in thought. There is visible labor and there is invisible labor.”
Les Misérables • VICTOR HUGO
