““We are full of fears and anxieties over our position, which makes us doubly cruel and dangerous.””

Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind • Yuval Noah Harari

“There's no quiet place here on earth for our love, not in the village and not anywhere else, so I picture a grave, deep and narrow, in which we embrace as if clamped together, I bury my face against you, you yours against me, and no one will ever see us.”

The Castle • Franz Kafka

“The thought of suicide is a great consolation: by means of it one gets successfully through many a bad night.”

Beyond Good and Evil • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

““Siddhartha learned a great deal from the Samanas; he learned many ways of losing the Self. He traveled along the path of self-denial through pain, through voluntary suffering and conquering of pain, through hunger, thirst and fatigue. He traveled the way of self-denial through meditation, through the emptying of the mind through all images. Along these and other paths did he learn to travel. He lost his Self a thousand times and for days on end he dwelt in non-being. But although the paths took him away from Self, in the end they always led back to it.””

Siddhartha • Hermann Hesse

“Think on this doctrine,—that reasoning beings were created for one another's sake; that to be patient is a branch of justice, and that men sin without intending it.”

Book IV • Marcus Aurelius
