“The skeleton of habit alone upholds the human frame.”

Mrs. Dalloway • Virginia Woolf

“A man who lies to himself, and believes his own lies, becomes unable to recognize truth, either in himself or in anyone else, and he ends up losing respect for himself and for others. When he has no respect for anyone, he can no longer love, and in him, he yields to his impulses, indulges in the lowest form of pleasure, and behaves in the end like an animal in satisfying his vices. And it all comes from lying — to others and to yourself.”

The Karamazov Brothers • Fyodor Dostoevski

“Behind your thoughts and feelings, my brother, there is a mighty lord, an unknown sage--his name is self.”

Thus Spoke Zarathustra • F Nietzsche

““The sound of trees comes from all sides. From leaves, branches, roots… If you put your ear to my trunk, you can hear my heartbeat.””

My Sweet Orange Tree • José Mauro de Vasconcelos

“In order to make a man or a boy covet a thing, it is only necessary to make the thing difficult to obtain.”

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer • Mark Twain
