“Remember that there are two kinds of beauty: one of the soul and the other of the body. That of the soul displays its radiance in intelligence, in chastity, in good conduct, in generosity, and in good breeding, and all these qualities may exist in an ugly man. And when we focus our attention upon that beauty, not upon the physical, love generally arises with great violence and intensity. I am well aware that I am not handsome, but I also know that I am not deformed, and it is enough for a man of worth not to be a monster for him to be dearly loved, provided he has those spiritual endowments I have spoken of.”

Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes

“A man is not idle because he is absorbed in thought. There is visible labor and there is invisible labor.”

Les Misérables • VICTOR HUGO

“From a political point of view, there is but one principle, the sovereignty of man over himself. This sovereignty of myself over myself is called Liberty.”

Les Misérables • VICTOR HUGO

“What's in a name? That which we call a rose.”

Romeo and Juliet • William Shakespeare

“We are so focused on figuring out the best approach that we never get around to taking action.”

Atomic Habits • James Clear
