“Great Jove angry is no longer Jove.”
Seagull • Anton Chekhov“When I had nothing to lose, I had everything.”
Eleven Minutes • Paulo Coelho“In short, if newspapers were written by people whose sole object in writing was to tell the truth about politics and the truth about art we should not believe in war, and we should believe in art.”
Three Guineas • Virginia Woolf“And how does the God's existence emerge from the proof? Does it follow straightway, without any breach of continuity? Or have we not here an analogy to the behavior of the little Cartesian dolls? As soon as I let go of the doll it stands on its head. As soon as I let it go – I must therefore let it go. So also with the proof. As long as I keep my hold on the proof, i.e., continue to demonstrate, the existence does not come out, if for no other reason than that I am engaged in proving it; but when I let the proof go, the existence is there. But this act of letting go is surely also something; it is indeed a contribution of mine. Must not this also be taken into the account, this little moment, brief as it may be – it need not be long, for it is a leap. However brief this moment, if only an instantaneous now, this "now" must be included in the reckoning.”
Philosophical Fragments • Soren Kierkegaard“I cook every chance in my pot. And only when it is cooked through do I welcome it as my food.”
Thus Spoke Zarathustra • F Nietzsche
