“My experience is that as soon as people are old enough to know better, they don't know anything at all.”
Lady Windermere's Fan • Oscar Wilde“What are men? Mortal gods. What are gods? Immortal men.”
Fragments • Heraclitus“What good men most biologists are, the tenors of the scientific world — temperamental, moody, lecherous, loud-laughing, and healthy. Your true biologist will sing you a song as loud and off-key as will a blacksmith, for he knows that morals are too often diagnostic of prostatitis and stomach ulcers. Sometimes he may proliferate a little too much in all directions, but he is as easy to kill as any other organism, and meanwhile he is very good company, and at least he does not confuse a low hormone productivity with moral ethics.”
The Log from the sea of Cortez • John Steinbeck“Outcasts always mourn.”
The Ballad of Reading Gaol • Oscar Wilde“But it is the way of youth that each fresh piece of knowledge of life should go to its head, and that once uplifted by an emotion it can never have enough of it.”
Beware of Pity • Stefan Zweig
