“ “Do not be surprised by anything, truth and people have two sides.””
Samarkand • Amin Maalouf““It’s all about the mask you wear to fit into a given situation. We all have several different masks. Having one at work and one at home isn’t that unusual. And another one for visiting the in-laws, perhaps.””
Surrounded by Idiots • Thomas Erikson“[In what way would you have us bury you?] In any way that you like; only you must get hold of me, and take care that I do not walk away from you. ...I cannot make Crito believe that I am the same Socrates who have been talking and conducting the argument; he fancies that I am the other Socrates whom he will soon see, a dead body... And though I have spoken many words in the endeavor to show that when I have drunk the poison I shall leave you and go to the joys of the blessed—these words of mine, with which I comforted you and myself, have had, I perceive, no effect upon Crito. ...you should be my surety to him that I shall not remain, but go away and depart; and then he will suffer less at my death, and not be grieved when he sees my body being burned or buried.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato“Democracy is the worst form of government except all those other forms that have been tried from time to time.”
Never Give In! • Winston S Churchill“Necessity is a violent school-mistress.”
Essays • Michel De Montaigne
