“Those who are well constituted in the body endure both heat and cold: and so those who are well constituted in the soul endure both anger and grief and excessive joy and the other effects.”
Fragment • Epictetus““Ideologies are substitutes for true knowledge, and ideologues are always dangerous when they come to power, because a simple-minded I-know-it-all approach is no match for the complexity of existence.””
12 Rules For Life: An Antidote To Chaos • Jordan B. Peterson“It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life—daily and hourly. Our answer must consist, not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual.”
Man's Search For Meaning • Viktor E Frankl“No one would ever believe how hard it is to be really alone in a city of millions when you don't have money.”
The Post Office Girl • Stefan Zweig““Perhaps man has a hundred senses."”
Seagull • Anton Chekhov
