See All“Recognition of the reality of evil necessarily relativizes the good, and the evil likewise, converting both into halves of a paradoxical whole.”
Memories, Dreams, Reflections • Carl Gustav Jung“To be fond of dancing was a certain step towards falling in love.”
Pride and Prejudice • Jane Austen“"For some reason, the tall, empty room where he was forced to remain made him feel uneasy as he lay there flat on the floor, even though he had been living in it for five years."”
Metamorphosis and Other Stories • Franz Kafka“When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.”
The Sign of Four • Arthur Conan Doyle““For certainly old age has a great sense of calm and freedom; when the passions relax their hold, then, as Sophocles says, we are freed from the grasp not of one mad master only, but of many. The truth is, Socrates, that these regrets, and also the complaints about relations, are to be attributed to the same cause, which is not old age, but men’s characters and tempers; for he who is of a calm and happy nature will hardly feel the pressure of age, but to him who is of an opposite disposition youth and age are equally a burden.””
Republic • Plato
