“Russia, are you not speeding along like a fiery and matchless troika?”
Dead Souls • Nikolai Gogol“Like all sciences and all valuations, the psychology of women has hitherto been considered only from the point of view of men.”
Feminine Psychology • Karen Horney“In this life our sorrows are either not very long or not very great because nature either overcomes them by habits or puts an end to them by sinking under their weight. But in hell the torments cannot be overcome by habit, for while they are of terrible intensity they are at the same time of continual variety, each pain, so to speak, taking fire from another and re-endowing that which has enkindled it with a still fiercer flame.”
A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man • James Joyce“Theirs, too, is the word-coining genius, as if thought plunged into a sea of words and came up dripping.”
The Common Reader • Virginia Woolf“Great minds are related to the brief span of time during which they live as great buildings are to a little square in which they stand: you cannot see them in all their magnitude because you are standing too close to them.”
Counsels and Maxims • Arthur Schopenhauer
