See All“Paper, they say, does not blush, but I assure you it's not true and that it's blushing just as I am now, all over.”
The Karamazov Brothers • Fyodor Dostoevski“Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear -- not absence of fear.”
The Tragedy of Pudd'nhead Wilson • Mark Twain“ “If happiness is determined by expectations, then two pillars of our society – mass media and the advertising industry – may unwittingly be depleting the globe’s reservoirs of contentment.”
Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind • Yuval Noah Harari“Nothing in the world is harder than speaking the truth and nothing easier than flattery. If there’s the hundredth part of a false note in speaking the truth, it leads to a discord, and that leads to trouble. But if all, to the last note, is false in flattery, it is just as agreeable, and is heard not without satisfaction. It may be a coarse satisfaction, but still a satisfaction. And however coarse the flattery, at least half will be sure to seem true. That’s so for all stages of development and classes of society.”
Crime And Punishment • Fyodor Dostoevski“The difference between literature and journalism is that journalism is unreadable and literature is not read.”
The Critic as Artist • Oscar Wilde
