““He added, ‘You see, she had friends here, people her own age. She was able to share things from the old days with them. You’re young, and it must have been hard for her with you.‘””
Stranger • Albert Camus““There is no other way of guarding oneself from flatterers except letting men understand that to tell you the truth does not offend you.””
The Prince • Niccolo Machiavelli“Remember that you ought to behave in life as you would at a banquet. As something is being passed around it comes to you; stretch out your hand, take a portion of it politely. It passes on; do not detain it. Or it has not come to you yet; do not project your desire to meet it, but wait until it comes in front of you. So act toward children, so toward a wife, so toward office, so toward wealth.”
The Enchiridion • Epictetus“It’s a hard thing to leave any deeply routine life, even if you hate it.”
East Of Eden • John Steinbeck““Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past.” ”
1984 • George Orwell
