“When a dozen men are harnessed to the same cart, one always pulls harder than the others, and when it's a question of promotion and seniority, it's easy to tread on the toes of the man ahead of you. At every word one utters one has to be on one's guard; one's never quite sure whether it isn't going to arouse the disapproval of the big bugs; there's always a storm in the offing.”
Beware of Pity • Stefan Zweig“The strongest of all warriors are these two -- Time and Patience.”
War and Peace • Leo Tolstoy“Happiness is to have a little string onto which things will attach themselves.”
A Moment's Liberty • Virginia Woolf““The older one gets the more convinced one becomes that his Majesty King Chance does three-quarters of the business of this miserable universe.””
The Prince • Niccolo Machiavelli“Gratitude is a rare frame of mind; and those who are grateful can seldom find a way to express what they feel. They are overwhelmed by silence; are shamefaced; and, sometimes, actually try to hide their feelings.”
Twenty-Four Hours in the Life of a Woman • Stefan Zweig
