“Something indefinite is always worse than something definite, a strong fear that doesn't last very long is easier than one that's nebulous but doesn't go away.”
The Post Office Girl • Stefan Zweig“Suicide may also be regarded as an experiment — a question which man puts to Nature, trying to force her to answer. The question is this: What change will death produce in a man’s existence and in his insight into the nature of things? It is a clumsy experiment to make; for it involves the destruction of the very consciousness which puts the question and awaits the answer.”
Counsels and Maxims • Arthur Schopenhauer“He that knows not what the world is, knows not where he is himself. He that knows not for what he was made, knows not what he is nor what the world is.”
Book VIII • Marcus Aurelius““If you do not know how to love, what good is the rising and setting of the sun?””
Samarkand • Amin Maalouf“Human nature is the same everywhere; it deifies success, it has nothing but scorn for defeat.”
Joan of Arc • Mark Twain
