Book VII • Marcus Aurelius“Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.”
Sand and Foam • Kahlil Gibran“How can we explain simultaneously this general pattern of female parental care and also its numerous exceptions?”
Why Is Sex Fun?: The Evolution of Human Sexuality • Jared Diamond“Why are you being so stingy?", Sobakevich demanded. "It's cheap at the price. A rogue would cheat you, sell you some worthless rubbish instead of souls, but mine are as juicy as ripe nuts, all picked—they are all either craftsmen or sturdy peasants.”

Parerga and Paralipomena • Arthur Schopenhauer
