“Remember that you ought to behave in life as you would at a banquet. As something is being passed around it comes to you; stretch out your hand, take a portion of it politely. It passes on; do not detain it. Or it has not come to you yet; do not project your desire to meet it, but wait until it comes in front of you. So act toward children, so toward a wife, so toward office, so toward wealth.”
The Enchiridion • Epictetus“I cannot agree with those who rank modesty among the virtues. To the logician all things should be seen exactly as they are, and to underestimate one's self is as much a departure from truth as to exaggerate one's own powers.”
The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes • Arthur Conan Doyle“People should be beautiful in every way—in their faces, in the way they dress, in their thoughts and in their innermost selves.”
Seagull • Anton Chekhov“How absurd men are! They never use the liberties they have, they demand those they do not have. They have freedom of thought, they demand freedom of speech.”
Either/Or • Soren Kierkegaard“Envy does not allow humanity to sleep.”
Psychology of the Unconscious • Carl Gustav Jung
