“Liberty ... is one of the most precious gifts which heaven has bestowed upon man; with it we cannot compare the treasures which the earth contains or the sea conceals; for liberty, as for honor, we can and ought to risk our lives; and on the other hand, captivity is the greatest evil that can befall a man.”
Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes“All things come into being by conflict of opposites.”
Fragments • Heraclitus“The assurance that we have no means of answering [final] questions is no valid excuse for callousness towards them. The more deeply should we feel, down to the roots of our being, their pressure and their sting. Whose hunger has ever been [sated] with the knowledge that he could not eat?”
History as a System • Jose Ortega y Gasset“Whoever has lived long enough to find out what life is, knows how deep a debt of gratitude we owe to Adam, the first great benefactor of our race. He brought death into the world.”
The Tragedy of Pudd'nhead Wilson • Mark Twain“Yet in doubt a man of worth will trust to his own wisdom.”
The Two Towers • J.R.R Tolkien
