“All things that God would have us do are hard for us to do--remember that--and hence, he oftener commands us than endeavours to persuade.”
Moby Dick • Herman Melville“If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.”
The Nightingale and the Rose • Oscar Wilde“Gratitude is a rare frame of mind; and those who are grateful can seldom find a way to express what they feel. They are overwhelmed by silence; are shamefaced; and, sometimes, actually try to hide their feelings.”
Twenty-Four Hours in the Life of a Woman • Stefan Zweig“There are men that will make you books, and turn them loose into the world, with as much dispatch as they would do a dish of fritters.”
Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes“A sack," Baudolino explained, like a man who knows a trade well, "is like a grape harvest: you have to divide the tasks. There are those who press the grapes, those who carry off the must in the tuns, those who cook for others, others who go to fetch the good wine from last year.... a sack is a serious job,"”
Baudolino • Umberto Eco
