“If you feel irritated by the absurd remarks of two people whose conversation you happen to overhear, you should imagine that you are listening to a dialogue of two fools in a comedy.”
Counsels and Maxims • Arthur Schopenhauer“Time is a sort of river of passing events, and strong is its current; no sooner is a thing brought to sight than it is swept by and another takes its place, and this too will be swept away.”
Book IV • Marcus Aurelius“Language is originally and essentially nothing but a system of signs or symbols, which denote real occurrences, or their echo in the human soul.”
Psychology of the Unconscious • Carl Gustav Jung“God has set his intentions in the flowers, in the dawn, in the spring--it is his will that we should love.”
Toilers of the Sea • VICTOR HUGO“A man who lies to himself, and believes his own lies, becomes unable to recognize truth, either in himself or in anyone else, and he ends up losing respect for himself and for others. When he has no respect for anyone, he can no longer love, and in him, he yields to his impulses, indulges in the lowest form of pleasure, and behaves in the end like an animal in satisfying his vices. And it all comes from lying — to others and to yourself.”
The Karamazov Brothers • Fyodor Dostoevski
