“The gods throw the dice, freeing love from its cage. And love can create or destroy — depending on the direction of the wind when it is set free.”
By The River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept • Paulo Coelho“Life takes us by surprise and orders us to move toward the unknown — even when we don't want to and when we think we don't need to.”
By The River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept • Paulo Coelho“He whose daily life has been a rounded whole, is easy in his mind.”
Ad Lucilium Epistulae Morales • Lucius Annaeus Seneca“Despite being depicted in innumerable cartoons as apelike brutes living in caves, Neanderthals had brains slightly larger than our own. They were also the first humans to leave behind strong evidence of burying their dead and caring for their sick.”
Guns, Germs And Steel • Jared Diamond, Ph.D. (UCLA)“Don't aim at success — the more you aim at it and make it a target, the more you are going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue, and it only does so as the unintended side-effect of one's personal dedication to a cause greater than oneself or as the by-product of one's surrender to a person other than oneself. Happiness must happen, and the same holds for success: you have to let it happen by not caring about it. I want you to listen to what your conscience commands you to do and go on to carry it out to the best of your knowledge. Then you will live to see that in the long run — in the long run, I say — success will follow you precisely because you had forgotten to think of it.”
Man's Search For Meaning • Viktor E Frankl
