“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“It would have been so pointless to kill himself that, even if he had wanted to, the pointlessness would have made him unable.”
The Trial • Franz Kafka“Where there have been powerful governments, societies, religions, public opinions, in short wherever there has been tyranny, there the solitary philosopher has been hated; for philosophy offers an asylum to a man into which no tyranny can force it way, the inward cave, the labyrinth of the heart.”
Untimely Meditations • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche“Theirs, too, is the word-coining genius, as if thought plunged into a sea of words and came up dripping.”
The Common Reader • Virginia Woolf“There is no love sincerer than the love of food.”
Man and Superman • George Bernard Shaw
