“London, that great cesspool into which all the loungers and idlers of the Empire are irresistibly drained.”
A Study in Scarlet • Arthur Conan Doyle“ “The happy man only feels at ease because the unhappy bear their burden in silence."”
Uncle Vanya • Anton Chekhov“The discipline of the written word punishes both stupidity and dishonesty.”
In Awe of Words • John Steinbeck“Do not shorten the morning by getting up late, or waste it in unworthy occupations or in talk; look upon it as the quintessence of life, as to a certain extent sacred. Evening is like old age: we are languid, talkative, silly. Each day is a little life: every waking and rising a little birth, every fresh morning a little youth, every going to rest and sleep a little death.”
Counsels and Maxims • Arthur Schopenhauer“She lacks the indefinable charm of weakness. It is the feet of clay that make the gold of the image precious.”
The Picture of Dorian Gray • Oscar Wilde
