“In fact, at times I preferred to live in the forbidden world, and frequently my return home to the bright realm, no matter how necessary and good that might be, was almost like a return to someplace less beautiful, more boring and dreary.

Demian • Hermann Hesse“"That man is … odd," I dared say to William.”
The Name of The Rose • Umberto Eco“It is a hopeless endeavour to attract people to a theatre unless they can be first brought to believe that they will never get in.”
Nicholas Nickleby • Charles Dickens““The better ambitions have to do with the development of character and ability, rather than status and power. Status you can lose. You carry character with you wherever you go, and it allows you to prevail against adversity.””

Therefore, when relaxed from our necessary cares and concerns, we then covet to see, to hear, and to learn somewhat; and we esteem knowledge of things either obscure or wonderful to be the indispensable means of living happily. ”
On Duties • Marcus Tullius Cicero
