“It matters not whether you place the sick man on a wooden bed or one of gold; wherever you lay him, he carries his disease along with him.”
Day's Collacon • Lucius Annaeus Seneca““Pain was something one had to die with. It was something that left no strength in the arms, in the head, and destroyed even the courage to turn the head from side to side on the pillow.””
My Sweet Orange Tree • José Mauro de Vasconcelos“We must never forget that we may also find meaning in life even when confronted with a hopeless situation, when facing a fate that cannot be changed. For what then matters is to bear witness to the uniquely human potential at its best, which is to transform a personal tragedy into a triumph, to turn one's predicament into a human achievement. When we are no longer able to change a situation-just think of an incurable disease such as inoperable cancer-we are challenged to change ourselves.”
Man's Search For Meaning • Viktor E Frankl“A dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world.”
The Critic as Artist • Oscar Wilde“Death was a friend, and sleep was Death's brother.”
The Grapes of Wrath • John Steinbeck
