“Success is the product of daily habits—not once-in-a-lifetime transformations.”
Atomic Habits • James Clear“I have said that Texas is a state of mind, but I think it is more than that. It is a mystique closely approximating a religion. And this is true to the extent that people either passionately love Texas or passionately hate it and, as in other religions, few people dare to inspect it for fear of losing their bearings in mystery or paradox.”
Travels with Charley: In Search of America • John Steinbeck“All violence consists in some people forcing others, under threat of suffering or death, to do what they do not want to do.”
The Law of Love and the Law of Violence • Leo Tolstoy““For the highest reach of injustice is, to be deemed just when you are not.””
Republic • Plato“Now the compound or composite may be supposed to be naturally capable of being dissolved in like manner as being compounded; but that which is uncompounded, and that only, must be, if anything is, indissoluble. ...And the uncompounded may be assumed to be the same and unchanging, where the compound is always changing and never the same? ...Is that idea or essence, which in the dialectical process we define as essence of true existence—whether essence of equality, beauty, or anything else: are these essences, I say, liable at times to some degree of change? or are they each of them always what they are, having the same simple, self-existent and unchanging forms, and not admitting of variation at all, or in any way, or at any time?”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato
