“"You're a gentleman," they used to say to him. "You shouldn't have gone murdering people with a hatchet; that's no occupation for a gentleman."”

Crime And Punishment • Fyodor Dostoevski

“If you cannot get rid of the family skeleton, you may as well make it dance.”

Immaturity • George Bernard Shaw

“It was not only that I could not become spiteful, I did not know how to become anything; neither spiteful nor kind, neither a rascal nor an honest man, neither a hero nor an insect. Now, I am living out my life in my corner, taunting myself with the spiteful and useless consolation that an intelligent man cannot become anything seriously, and it is only the fool who becomes anything.”

Notes from Underground • Fyodor Dostoevski

“There is no feeling so simple that it is not immediately complicated and distorted by introspection.”

Reflections on Literature and Morality • Andre Gide

“People who are so much at the mercy of their moods should never be given serious responsibilities.”

Beware of Pity • Stefan Zweig
