Autumn Leaves • Andre Gide“Sure, cried the tenant men, but it's our land. We measured it and broke it up. We were born on it, and we got killed on it, died on it. Even if it's no good, it's still ours. That's what makes it ours-being born on it, working it, dying on it.”
The Grapes of Wrath • John Steinbeck“To the rational being only the irrational is unendurable, but the rational is endurable.”
Discourses • Epictetus“Variant Translation: Let not thy mind run on what thou lackest as much as on what thou hast already.”
Book VII • Marcus Aurelius“No feats of heroism are needed to achieve the greatest and most important changes in the existence of humanity; neither the armament of millions of soldiers, nor the construction of new roads and machines, nor the arrangement of exhibitions, nor the organization of workmen's unions, nor revolutions, nor barricades, nor explosions, nor the perfection of aerial navigation; but a change in public opinion.”
Patriotism and Christianity • Leo Tolstoy
