“No form of Nature is inferior to Art; for the arts merely imitate natural forms.”
Meditations • Marcus Aurelius“It was not only that I could not become spiteful, I did not know how to become anything; neither spiteful nor kind, neither a rascal nor an honest man, neither a hero nor an insect. Now, I am living out my life in my corner, taunting myself with the spiteful and useless consolation that an intelligent man cannot become anything seriously, and it is only the fool who becomes anything.”
Notes from Underground • Fyodor Dostoevski“One cannot be always laughing at a man without now and then stumbling on something witty.”
Pride and Prejudice • Jane Austen“The problem to giving too many fucks is bad for your mental health. It causes you to be overly attached to the superficial and the fake.”
The Subtle Art Of Not Giving A F*Ck • Mark Manson“Let a man be of good cheer about his soul, who has cast away the pleasures and ornaments of the body as alien to him, and rather hurtful in their effects, and has followed after the pleasures of knowledge in this life; who has adorned the soul in her own proper jewels, which are temperance, and justice, and courage, and nobility, and truth—in these arrayed she is ready to go on her journey to the world below, when her time comes. You, Simmias and Cebes, and all other men, will depart at some time or other. Me already, as the tragic poet would say, the voice of fate calls.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato
