“If you appear to be somebody important to others, distrust yourself.”
The Enchiridion • Epictetus“ "A superior man is modest in his speech but exceeds in his actions."”
The Analects of Confucius • Confucius“In particular, while natural selection favors both males and females that leave many offspring, the best strategy for doing so may be different for fathers and mothers. That generates a built-in conflict between the parents, a conclusion that all too many humans don’t need scientists to reveal to them. We make jokes about the battle of the sexes, but the battle is neither a joke nor an aberrant accident of how individual fathers or mothers behave on particular occasions. It is indeed perfectly true that behavior that is in a male’s genetic interests may not necessarily be in the interests of his female co-parent, and vice versa. That cruel fact is one of the fundamental causes of human misery.”
Why Is Sex Fun?: The Evolution of Human Sexuality • Jared Diamond“To become what one is, one must not have the faintest idea what one is.”
Ecce Homo • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche“Windmill or no windmill, life would go on as it had always gone on - that is, badly.”
