See All“There are people who the more you do for them, the less they will do for themselves.”
Emma • Jane Austen“As for life, it is a battle and a sojourning in a strange land; but the fame that comes after is oblivion.”
Book II • Marcus Aurelius“As nothing is straighter than that which is straight, so nothing is juster than that which is just.”
Fragment • Epictetus“When one does another person an injustice, in some mysterious way it does one good to discover (or to persuade oneself) that the injured party has also behaved badly or unfairly in some little matter or other; it is always a relief to the conscience if one can apportion some measure of guilt to the person one has betrayed.”
Beware of Pity • Stefan Zweig““In a way, they seemed to be arguing the case as if it had nothing to do with me. Everything was happening without my participation. My fate was being decided without anyone so much as asking my opinion.””
Stranger • Albert Camus
