““Let me show in a figure how far our nature is enlightened or unenlightened:—Behold! human beings living in a underground den, which has a mouth open towards the light and reaching all along the den; here they have been from their childhood, and have their legs and necks chained so that they cannot move, and can only see before them, being prevented by the chains from turning round their heads. Above and behind them a fire is blazing at a distance, and between the fire and the prisoners there is a raised way; and you will see, if you look, a low wall built along the way, like the screen which marionette players have in front of them, over which they show the puppets.””
Republic • Plato“Perhaps it takes courage to raise children.”
East Of Eden • John Steinbeck“It's in vain to recall the past, unless it works some influence upon the present.”
David Copperfield • Charles Dickens“A human being who strives for something great considers everyone he meets on his way either as a means or as a delay and obstacle--or as a temporary resting place.”
Beyond Good and Evil • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche“Do not meddle in the affairs of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger.”
The Fellowship of the Ring • J.R.R Tolkien
