“If there's any illness for which people offer many remedies, you may be sure that particular illness is incurable, I think.”
Seagull • Anton Chekhov“You could leave life right now. Let that determine what you do and say and think. ”
Book II • Marcus Aurelius“In this present life, I reckon that we make the nearest approach to knowledge when we have the least possible concern or interest in the body, and are not saturated with the bodily nature, but remain pure until the hour when God himself is pleased to release us. And then the foolishness of the body will be cleared away and we shall be pure and hold converse with othe pure souls, and know of ourselves the clear light everywhere; and this is surely the light of truth. For no impure thing is allowed to approach the pure. These are the sort of words, Simmias, which the true lovers of wisdom cannot help saying to one another, and thinking.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato“ "When we see men of a contrary character, we should turn inwards and examine ourselves."”
The Analects of Confucius • Confucius“The birth of all things is weak and tender; and therefore we should have our eyes intent on beginnings.”
Essays • Michel De Montaigne
