“„It is not our purpose to become each other; it is to recognize each other, to learn to see the other and honor him for what he is: each the other's opposite and complement.“”
Narcissus and Goldmund • Hermann Hesse“What light through yonder window breaks?”
Romeo and Juliet • William Shakespeare“When shall we open our minds to the conviction that the ultimate reality of the world is neither matter nor spirit, is no definite thing, but a perspective?”
Meditations on Quixote • Jose Ortega y Gasset“The difference between literature and journalism is that journalism is unreadable and literature is not read.”
The Critic as Artist • Oscar Wilde“this second, violent world gushed out fragrantly everywhere, except in our rooms, where Mother and Father were. And that was very good. It was wonderful that here among us there was peace, order, and repose, duty and a clear conscience, forgiveness and love—and wonderful that all the rest existed, all those noisy, glaring, somber, and violent things, which nevertheless could be escaped with a single bound toward one’s mother.”
Demian • Hermann Hesse
