Les Misérables • VICTOR HUGO“Old men are dangerous: it doesn't matter to them what is going to happen to the world.”
Heartbreak House • George Bernard Shaw““Is there anything surprising in one who passes from divine contemplations to the evil state of man, misbehaving himself in a ridiculous manner; if, while his eyes are blinking and before he has become accustomed to the surrounding darkness, he is compelled to fight in courts of law, or in other places, about the images or the shadows of images of justice, and is endeavouring to meet the conceptions of those who have never yet seen absolute justice?””
Republic • Plato“They who have a care of their souls, and do not merely live in the fashions of the body, say farewell to all this; they will not walk in the ways of the blind: and when philosophy offers them purification and release from evil, they feel that they ought not resist her influence, and to her they incline, and whither she leads they follow her.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato“ “Because without compassion, life has little value.””
My Sweet Orange Tree • José Mauro de Vasconcelos
