“Of what is great one must either be silent or speak with greatness.”
The Will to Power • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche““Every one sees what you appear to be, few really know what you are.””
The Prince • Niccolo Machiavelli“When a child first catches adults out -- when it first walks into his grave little head that adults do not always have divine intelligence, that their judgments are not always wise, their thinking true, their sentences just -- his world falls into panic desolation. The gods are fallen and all safety gone. And there is one sure thing about the fall of gods: they do not fall a little; they crash and shatter or sink deeply into green muck. It is a tedious job to build them up again; they never quite shine. And the child's world is never quite whole again. It is an aching kind of growing.”
East Of Eden • John Steinbeck“a normal human being ... does not exist.”
The Neurotic Personality Of Our Time • Karen Horney““A wise prince ought to . . . never in peaceful times stand idle, but increase his resources with industry in such a way that they may be available to him in adversity.””
The Prince • Niccolo Machiavelli
