“The guest who has escaped from the roof, will think twice before he comes back in by the door.”
The Two Towers • J.R.R Tolkien“As it is pleasant to see the sea from the land, so it is pleasant for him who has escaped from troubles to think of them.”
Fragment • Epictetus“Real art, like the wife of an affectionate husband, needs no ornaments. But counterfeit art, like a prostitute, must always be decked out. The cause of production of real art is the artist's inner need to express a feeling that has accumulated, just as for a mother the cause of sexual conception is love. The cause of counterfeit art, as of prostitution, is gain. The consequence of true art is the introduction of a new feeling into the intercourse of life, as the consequence of a wife's love is the birth of a new man into life. The consequences of counterfeit art are the perversion of man, pleasure which never satisfies, and the weakening of man's spiritual strength.”
What is art? • Leo Tolstoy“ "There was seldom any conversation, especially at first, that was not about him in some way, even if only in secret."”
Metamorphosis and Other Stories • Franz Kafka“ Conflict is not only normal, then; it’s absolutely necessary for the maintenance of a healthy relationship.”
The Subtle Art Of Not Giving A F*Ck • Mark Manson
