“Even in those cities which seem to enjoy the blessings of peace, and where the arts florish, the inhabitants are devoured by envy, cares and anxieties, which are greater plagues than any experienced in a town when it is under siege.”
Candide • Voltaire“I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying.”
The Happy Prince and Other Stories • Oscar Wilde“Every portrait that is painted with feeling is a portrait of the artist, not of the sitter.”
The Picture of Dorian Gray • Oscar Wilde“You could not in your travels find the source or destination of the soul, so deeply hidden is the Logos. [But] I searched for It [and found It] within myself.That hidden Unity is beyond what is visible.All men have this capacity of knowing themselves, [for] the soul has the Logos within it, which can be known when the soul is evolved. What is within us remains the same eternally; It is the same in life and death, waking and sleeping, youth and old age; for, It has become this world, and the world must return to It.”
Fragments • Heraclitus“After coming into contact with a religious man I always feel I must wash my hands.”
Ecce Homo • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
