“It is not right to vex ourselves at things, For they care not about it.”
Book VII • Marcus Aurelius“To be in love is not the same as loving. You can be in love with a woman and still hate her.”
The Karamazov Brothers • Fyodor Dostoevski“Those who live for hope alone find that the immediate future always slips from their grasp.”
Ad Lucilium Epistulae Morales • Lucius Annaeus Seneca“Either knowledge is not to be attained at all, or if at all, after death. For then, and not til then, the soul will be in herself alone and without the body.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato“God is the middle term. Only by loving God above all else can one love the neighbor. Love for the neighbor is therefore the eternal equality in loving. Equality is simply not to make distinctions and eternal equality is unconditionally not to make the slightest distinction, unqualifiedly not to make the slightest distinction. The essential Christian is itself too weighty, in its movements too earnest to scurry about, dancing, in the frivolity of such facile talk about the higher, highest, and the supremely highest.”
Works of Love • Soren Kierkegaard
