“I drink when I have occasion, and sometimes when I have no occasion.”
Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes“If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment.”

Either/Or • Soren Kierkegaard“If the knowledge which we acquired before birth was lost to us at birth, and afterwords by the use of the senses we recovered that which we previously knew, will not that which we call learning be a process of recovering our knowledge, and may not this be rightly termed recollection by us? ...Then, Simmias, our souls must have existed before they were in the form of man—without bodies, and must have had intelligence.”

Three Guineas • Virginia Woolf
