““Justice is the giving to each man what is proper to him, and this he termed a debt.””
Republic • Plato“The reality of the other person is not in what he reveals to you, but in what he cannot reveal to you. Therefore, if you would understand him, listen not to what he says but rather to what he does not say.”
Sand and Foam • Kahlil Gibran“And will he who is a true lover of wisdom, and is persuaded in like manner that only in the world below can he worthily enjoy her, still repine at death? Will he not depart with joy? Surely he will, my friend, if he be a true philosopher. ...And if this be true, he would be very absurd, ...if he were to fear death.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato“Accept suffering and achieve atonement through it — that is what you must do.”
Crime And Punishment • Fyodor Dostoevski“I have said that Texas is a state of mind, but I think it is more than that. It is a mystique closely approximating a religion. And this is true to the extent that people either passionately love Texas or passionately hate it and, as in other religions, few people dare to inspect it for fear of losing their bearings in mystery or paradox.”
Travels with Charley: In Search of America • John Steinbeck
