“Death,—a stopping of impressions through the senses, and of the pulling of the cords of motion, and of the ways of thought, and of service to the flesh.”
Book VI • Marcus Aurelius“The world is a stage, but the play is badly cast.”
Lord Arthur Savile's Crime • Oscar Wilde“My wisdom has long accumulated like a cloud, it becomes stiller and darker. So does all wisdom which shall one day bear lightnings.”
Thus Spoke Zarathustra • F Nietzsche“Desire may reflect anything from a desperate need to a transitory want. In either case, wealth is anything that satisfies the craving. It applies balm to the itch. It may, in fact, gratify more than one desire at a time. We may want a touch of beauty on our living room wall. A painting, even an inexpensive reproduction, may provide a small surge of pleasure every time we pause to look at it. The same work of art may simultaneously fulfill our desire to impress visitors with our splendid good taste, or our social importance. But wealth can also be a bank account, a bicycle, a hoard of food or a health insurance policy.”
Revolutionary Wealth • Alvin Toffler“ “Any idiot can face a crisis; it's this day-to-day living that wears you out.””
Seagull • Anton Chekhov
