“Still, life had a way of adding day to day.”
Mrs. Dalloway • Virginia Woolf“His answer to every problem, every setback was “I will work harder!” —which he had adopted as his personal motto.”
Animal Farm • George Orwell“Then I heard someone who had a book of Anaxagoras, as he said, out of which he read that the mind was the disposer and cause of all... and I said to myself: If mind is the disposer, mind will dispose all for the best, and put each particular in the best place; and I argued that if anyone desired to find out the cause of the generation or destruction of anything, he must find out what state of being or suffering or doing was best for that thing, and therefore a man had only consider the best for himself and others, and then he would also know the worse, for that the same science comprised both.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato“Of course, it is no easy matter to be polite; in so far, I mean, as it requires us to show great respect for everybody, whereas most people deserve none at all.”
Counsels and Maxims • Arthur Schopenhauer““Crying is not a prescription. It’s not a feat. It’s just a simple act. No one should be forced to shed tears. The only thing that matters is not to belittle the misfortune of others.””
Samarkand • Amin Maalouf
