See All“I say patience, and shuffle the cards.”
Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes“The art of not reading is a very important one. It consists in not taking an interest in whatever may be engaging the attention of the general public at any particular time. When some political or ecclesiastical pamphlet, or novel, or poem is making a great commotion, you should remember that he who writes for fools always finds a large public. A precondition for reading good books is not reading bad ones: for life is short.””
Essays and Aphorisms • Arthur Schopenhauer“Only a numskull is pleased at being a so-called 'success' with women, only a dunderhead is puffed up by it. A real man is much more likely to be dismayed at realizing that a woman has lost her heart to him when he can't reciprocate her feelings.”
Beware of Pity • Stefan Zweig“ "There was seldom any conversation, especially at first, that was not about him in some way, even if only in secret."”
Metamorphosis and Other Stories • Franz Kafka“A man makes no noise over a good deed, but passes on to another as a vine to bear grapes again in season.”
Book V • Marcus Aurelius
