“The fundament upon which all our knowledge and learning rests is the inexplicable.”
Counsels and Maxims • Arthur Schopenhauer“It is not time that changes man nor knowledge; the only thing that can change someone’s mind is love.”
Eleven Minutes • Paulo Coelho“Character may be manifested in the great moments, but it is made in the small ones.”
Never Give In! • Winston S Churchill“The characteristic of the hour is that the commonplace mind, knowing itself to be commonplace, has the assurance to proclaim the rights of the commonplace and to impose them wherever it will. As they say in the United States: "to be different is to be indecent." The mass crushes beneath it everything that is different, everything that is excellent, individual, qualified and select. Anybody who is not like everybody, who does not think like everybody, runs the risk of being eliminated. And it is clear, of course, that this "everybody" is not "everybody." "Everybody" was normally the complex unity of the mass and the divergent, specialised minorities. Nowadays, "everybody" is the mass alone.”
the Revolt of the Masses • Jose Ortega y Gasset““An honorable man does not throw a stone into the well where he quenches his thirst!””
Samarkand • Amin Maalouf
