““The best books… are those that tell you what you know already.” ”
1984 • George Orwell““Shall we just carelessly allow children to hear any casual tales which may be devised by casual persons, and to receive into their minds ideas for the most part the very opposite of those which we should wish them to have when they are grown up?””
Republic • Plato“this second, violent world gushed out fragrantly everywhere, except in our rooms, where Mother and Father were. And that was very good. It was wonderful that here among us there was peace, order, and repose, duty and a clear conscience, forgiveness and love—and wonderful that all the rest existed, all those noisy, glaring, somber, and violent things, which nevertheless could be escaped with a single bound toward one’s mother.”
Demian • Hermann Hesse“If thou canst see sharp, look and judge wisely, says the philosopher.”
Book VIII • Marcus Aurelius““You, Venerable One, may indeed be a seeker, for, striving toward your goal, there is much you do not see which is right before your eyes.””
Siddhartha • Hermann Hesse
