See All“We must never forget that spiritual experience is above all a practical experience of love. And with love, there are no rules.”
By The River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept • Paulo Coelho“Nothing is so stifling as symmetry. Symmetry is boredom, the quintessence of mourning. Despair yawns. There is something more terrible than a hell of suffering -- a hell of boredom.”
Les Misérables • VICTOR HUGO“I was brought up in the Christian religion, and although I can scarcely sanction all the improper attempts to gain the emancipation of woman, all paganlike reminiscences also seem foolish to me. My brief and simple opinion is that woman is certainly as good as man-period. Any more discursive elaboration of the difference between the sexes or deliberation on which sex is superior is an idle intellectual occupation for loafers and bachelors.”
Stages on Life's Way • Soren Kierkegaard“ “Wisdom... comes not from age, but from education and learning.””
The Cherry Orchard • Anton Chekhov“The artist who is after success lets himself be influenced by the public. Generally such an artist contributes nothing new, for the public acclaims only what it already knows, what it recognizes.”
Reflections on Literature and Morality • Andre Gide
