“Now the compound or composite may be supposed to be naturally capable of being dissolved in like manner as being compounded; but that which is uncompounded, and that only, must be, if anything is, indissoluble. ...And the uncompounded may be assumed to be the same and unchanging, where the compound is always changing and never the same? ...Is that idea or essence, which in the dialectical process we define as essence of true existence—whether essence of equality, beauty, or anything else: are these essences, I say, liable at times to some degree of change? or are they each of them always what they are, having the same simple, self-existent and unchanging forms, and not admitting of variation at all, or in any way, or at any time?”

The Trials Of Socrates • Plato

“If they drive God from the earth, we shall shelter Him underground.”

The Karamazov Brothers • Fyodor Dostoevski

“In the One, above and below are the same, [just as] beginning and end are one in the circumference of a circle. That which is in conflict is also in concert; while things differ from one another, they are all contained in the most beautiful Unity.”

Fragments • Heraclitus

“Desire ought to obey reason.”

On Duties • Marcus Tullius Cicero

“He that breaks a thing to find out what it is has left the path of wisdom.”

The Fellowship of the Ring • J.R.R Tolkien
