New Ways in Psychoanalysis • Karen Horney“Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear -- not absence of fear.”
The Tragedy of Pudd'nhead Wilson • Mark Twain“It is a melancholy truth that even great men have their poor relations.”
Bleak House • Charles Dickens“Not only does the wind of accidents stir me according to its blowing, but I am also stirred and troubled by the instability of my attitude.”
Essays • Michel De Montaigne“If there were a distinguished person whose life, by birth and conditions, belonged especially to the same earthly dissimilarity, a distinguished person who would not assent to this divisive conspiracy against the universally human, that is, against the neighbor, if he did not have the heart to do this, if, clearly perceiving the consequences, he still trusted in God for the strength to bear these consequences while he lacked the strength to harden his heart ... the distinguished corruption would accuse him of being a traitor and self-lover—because he wanted to love the neighbor.”
Works of Love • Soren Kierkegaard
