The Wit and Wisdom of Mark Twain • Mark Twain““The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.””
Animal Farm • George Orwell“The most comprehensive formulation of therapeutic goals is the striving for wholeheartedness: to be without pretense, to be emotionally sincere, to be able to put the whole of oneself into one's feelings, one's work, one's beliefs.”
Our Inner Conflicts: A Constructive Theory of Neurosis • Karen Horney“The species with eyes appears suddenly, capriciously as it were, and it is this species which changes the environment by creating its visible aspect. The eye does not come into being because it is needed. Just the contrary; because the eye appears it can henceforth be applied as a serviceable instrument. Each species builds up its stock of useful habits by selecting among, and taking advantage of, the innumerable useless actions which a living being performs out of sheer exuberance.”
History as a System • Jose Ortega y Gasset
