“Men are still men. The despot's wickedness, Comes of ill teaching, and of power's excess-- Comes of the purple he from childhood wears, Slaves would be tyrants if the chance were theirs.”
The Vanished City • VICTOR HUGO“Honesty's the best policy.”
Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes“I was growing inward incessantly; like an animal that hibernates during the wintertime, I could hear other peoples' voices with my ears; my own voice, however, I could hear only in my throat. The loneliness and the solitude that lurked behind me were like a condensed, thick, eternal night, like one of those nights with a dense, persistent, sticky darkness which waits to pounce on unpopulated cities filled with lustful and vengeful dreams.”
The Blind Owl • Sadegh Hedayat“To get back my youth I would do anything in the world, except take exercise, get up early, or be respectable.”
The Picture of Dorian Gray • Oscar Wilde“Only the thoughts that we live out have any value.”
Demian • Hermann Hesse
