Day's Collacon • Lucius Annaeus Seneca“Rather, Nature’s intentions for man are inscribed in individuals, in you and me.”
Demian • Hermann Hesse““I see that you are indifferent about money, which is a characteristic rather of those who have inherited their fortunes than of those who have acquired them; the makers of fortunes have a second love of money as a creation of their own, resembling the affection of authors for their own poems, or of parents for their children, besides that natural love of it for the sake of use and profit which is common to them and all men. And hence they are very bad company, for they can talk about nothing but the praises of wealth.””
Republic • Plato“Never hold discussions with the monkey when the organ grinder is in the room.”
