See All“ “Doublethink means the power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one’s mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them.””
1984 • George Orwell“Nothing in the world is harder than speaking the truth and nothing easier than flattery. If there’s the hundredth part of a false note in speaking the truth, it leads to a discord, and that leads to trouble. But if all, to the last note, is false in flattery, it is just as agreeable, and is heard not without satisfaction. It may be a coarse satisfaction, but still a satisfaction. And however coarse the flattery, at least half will be sure to seem true. That’s so for all stages of development and classes of society.”
Crime And Punishment • Fyodor Dostoevski“It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don't keep your feet, there's no knowing where you might be swept off to.”
The Fellowship of the Ring • J.R.R Tolkien“What another would have done as well as you, do not do it. What another would have said as well as you, do not say it; what another would have written as well, do not write it. Be faithful to that which exists nowhere but in yourself — and thus make yourself indispensable.”
Fruits of the Earth • Andre Gide““I will begin with what in my opinion is your lack of restraint."”
Seagull • Anton Chekhov
