“Yoga in Mayfair or Fifth Avenue, or in any other place which is on the telephone, is a spiritual fake.”
Collected Works, vol. 11 • Carl Gustav Jung“The formula 'two plus two equals five' is not without its attractions.”
Notes from Underground • Fyodor Dostoevski“We shall escape the absurdity of growing a whole chicken in order to eat the breast or wing, by growing these parts separately under a suitable medium.”
Never Give In! • Winston S Churchill“What they call their loyalty, and their fidelity, I call either the lethargy of custom or their lack of imagination.”
The Picture of Dorian Gray • Oscar Wilde“It is the habit of the boa constrictor to besmear the body of his victim with a foul slime before he devours it; and there are many people in England, and perhaps elsewhere, who seem to be unable to contemplate military operations for clear political objects, unless they can cajole themselves into the belief that their enemy are utterly and hopelessly vile. To this end the Dervishes, from the Mahdi and the Khalifa downwards, have been loaded with every variety of abuse and charged with all conceivable crimes. This may be very comforting to philanthropic persons at home; but when an army in the field becomes imbued with the idea that the enemy are vermin who cumber the earth, instances of barbarity may easily be the outcome.”
Never Give In! • Winston S Churchill
