““In my eyes, every murderous case loses its appeal. No matter how beautiful it is, it turns ugly, deteriorates and degrades. No case that allies with death can be justified.””
Samarkand • Amin Maalouf“I would venture to guess than Anon, who wrote so many poems without signing them, was often a woman.”
A Room of One's Own • Virginia Woolf“It is by the goodness of God that in our country we have those three unspeakably precious things: freedom of speech, freedom of conscience, and the prudence never to practice either.”
Following the Equator • Mark Twain““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““Wine and tobacco destroy the individuality."”
Seagull • Anton Chekhov
