“What's the use you learning to do right, when it's troublesome to do right and ain't no trouble to do wrong, and the wages is just the same?”

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn • Mark Twain

“"Gregor, despite his current sad and revolting form, was a family member who could not be treated as an enemy."”

Metamorphosis and Other Stories • Franz Kafka

“Beauty had this penalty -- it came too readily, came too completely. It stilled life -- froze it. One forgot the little agitations; the flush, the pallor, some queer distortion, some light or shadow, which made the face unrecognisable for a moment and yet added a quality one saw for ever after. It was simpler to smooth that all out under the cover of beauty.”

To the Lighthouse • Virginia Woolf

“Money and goods are certainly the best of references.”

Our Mutual Friend • Charles Dickens

“The public have an insatiable curiosity to know everything, except what is worth knowing.”

The Soul of Man Under Socialism • Oscar Wilde
