“Variant translation: If I had to define man it would be: a biped, ungrateful.”
Notes from Underground • Fyodor Dostoevski““So, listen, to yourself and to those with whom you are speaking. Your wisdom then consists not of the knowledge you already have, but the continual search for knowledge, which is the highest form of wisdom.””
12 Rules For Life: An Antidote To Chaos • Jordan B. Peterson“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.”
A Tale of Two Cities • Charles Dickens“To tell the truth, I often felt uneasy when I thought of the excessive brittleness and fragility of the moon. The moon is generally repaired in Hamburg, and very imperfectly. It is done by a lame cooper, an obvious blockhead who has no idea how to do it. He took waxed thread and olive-oil—hence that pungent smell over all the earth which compels people to hold their noses. And this makes the moon so fragile that no men can live on it, but only noses. Therefore we cannot see our noses, because they are on the moon.”
Diary of a Madman • Nikolai Gogol“If lowborn men could stand up to those born to rule, religion, government, the whole world would fall to pieces ... So it would; so it will ... then the pieces will be put together again by such as destroyed it.”
The Acts of King Arthur and His Noble Knights • John Steinbeck
