“Thou sufferest justly: for thou choosest rather to become good to-morrow than to be good to-day.”
Book VIII • Marcus Aurelius“Two types of choices seem to me to have been crucial in tipping their outcomes towards success or failure: long-term planning, and willingness to reconsider core values. On reflection, we can also recognize the crucial role of these same two choices for the outcomes of our individual lives.”
Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed • Jared Diamond“We say that slavery has vanished from European civilization, but this is not true. Slavery still exists, but now it applies only to women and its name is prostitution.”
Les Misérables • VICTOR HUGO“The one thing you can't take away from me is the way I choose to respond to what you do to me.”
Man's Search For Meaning • Viktor E Frankl“When one does another person an injustice, in some mysterious way it does one good to discover (or to persuade oneself) that the injured party has also behaved badly or unfairly in some little matter or other; it is always a relief to the conscience if one can apportion some measure of guilt to the person one has betrayed.”
Beware of Pity • Stefan Zweig
