“Most often people seek in life occasions for persisting in their opinions rather than for educating themselves.”
Reflections on Literature and Morality • Andre Gide“The Gospels contain a fairy-story, or a story of a larger kind which embraces all the essence of fairy-stories. ... But this story has entered History and the primary world; ... It has pre-eminently the "inner consistency of reality." There is no tale ever told that men would rather find was true, and none which so many sceptical men have accepted as true on its own merits. For the Art of it has the supremely convincing tone of Primary Art, that is, of Creation. ...this story is supreme; and it is true. Art has been verified. God is the Lord, of angels, and of men--and of elves. Legend and History have met and fused.”
On Fairy-Stories • J.R.R Tolkien“Pain or pleasure? I say pleasure.”
Discourses • Epictetus“Your actions reveal how badly you want something. If you keep saying something is a priority but you never act on it, then you don’t really want it. It’s time to have an honest conversation with yourself. Your actions reveal your true motivations.”
Atomic Habits • James Clear“Many evil things there are that your strong walls and bright swords do not stay.”
The Fellowship of the Ring • J.R.R Tolkien
