See All“A dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world.”
The Critic as Artist • Oscar Wilde“There, comrades, is the answer to all our problems. It is summed up in a single word-- Man.”
Animal Farm • George Orwell“We do not look in great cities for our best morality.”
Mansfield Park • Jane Austen“I was growing inward incessantly; like an animal that hibernates during the wintertime, I could hear other peoples' voices with my ears; my own voice, however, I could hear only in my throat. The loneliness and the solitude that lurked behind me were like a condensed, thick, eternal night, like one of those nights with a dense, persistent, sticky darkness which waits to pounce on unpopulated cities filled with lustful and vengeful dreams.”
The Blind Owl • Sadegh Hedayat“Yet living and dying, honour and dishonour, pain and pleasure, riches and poverty, and so forth are equally the lot of good men and bad. Things like these neither elevate nor degrade; and therefore they are no more good than they are evil.”
Book II • Marcus Aurelius
