““My father used to say that one of the great offences of sham politeness was the neglect of promises. When anything is demanded of you that you cannot do, refuse positively and leave no loopholes for false hopes; on the other hand, grant at once whatever you are willing to bestow.””
The Lily Of The Valley • Honore de Balzac““It seems clear that the Arab East still sees the West as a natural enemy. Against that enemy, any hostile action-be it political, military, or based on oil-is considered no more than legitimate vengeance. And there can be no doubt that the schism between these two worlds dates from the Crusades, deeply felt by the Arabs, even today, as an act of rape””
The Crusades Through Arab Eyes • Amin Maalouf“There is no distinctly native American criminal class except Congress.”
Following the Equator • Mark Twain““A minute later she asked me if I loved her. I told her it didn’t mean anything but that I didn’t think so.””
Stranger • Albert Camus“A man’s maturity: that is to have rediscovered the seriousness he possessed as a child at play.”
Beyond Good and Evil • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
