“A great step towards independence is a good-humored stomach.”
Letters from a Stoic • Lucius Annaeus Seneca“My body was like a harp and her words and gestures were like fingers running upon the wires.”
Dubliners • James Joyce“Even while I protest the assembly-line production of our food, our songs, our language, and eventually our souls, I know that it was a rare home that baked good bread in the old days. Mother’s cooking was with rare exceptions poor, that good unpasteurized milk touched only by flies and bits of manure crawled with bacteria, the healthy old-time life was riddled with aches, sudden death from unknown causes, and that sweet local speech I mourn was the child of illiteracy and ignorance. It is the nature of a man as he grows older, a small bridge in time, to protest against change, particularly change for the better.”
Travels with Charley: In Search of America • John Steinbeck““For the highest reach of injustice is, to be deemed just when you are not.””
Republic • Plato“If thou canst see sharp, look and judge wisely, says the philosopher.”
Book VIII • Marcus Aurelius
