“No one knows how greatness comes to a man. It may lie in his blackness, sleeping, or it may lance into him like those driven fiery particles from outer space. These things, however, are known about greatness: need gives it life and puts it in action; it never comes without pain; it leaves a man changed, chastened, and exalted at the same time--he can never return to simplicity.”
Sweet Thursday • John Steinbeck“Without It, the fairest universe is but a randomly scattered dust-heap. If we are to speak with intelligence, we must found our being on that which is common to all... For that Logos which governs man is born of the One, which is Divine. It [the Divine] governs the universe by Its will, and is more than sufficient to everyone.”
Fragments • Heraclitus““The fear of death is an animal passion which must be overcome."”
Seagull • Anton Chekhov“It is a capital mistake to theorize before one has data. Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to suit facts.”
A Scandal in Bohemia • Arthur Conan Doyle“Perhaps it takes courage to raise children.”
East Of Eden • John Steinbeck
