““Pain was something one had to die with. It was something that left no strength in the arms, in the head, and destroyed even the courage to turn the head from side to side on the pillow.””
My Sweet Orange Tree • José Mauro de Vasconcelos“Let your plans be dark and impenetrable as night, and when you move, fall like a thunderbolt.”
The Art Of War • Sun Tzu“Words are acoustical signs for concepts; concepts, however, are more or less definite image signs for often recurring and associated sensations, for groups of sensations. To understand one another, it is not enough that one use the same words; one also has to use the same words for the same species of inner experiences; in the end one has to have one's experiences in common.”

The Winter of Our Discontent • John Steinbeck“For whoever has what he has from the God himself clearly has it at first hand; and he who does not have it from the God himself is not a disciple. Let us assume that it is otherwise, that the contemporary generation of disciples had received the condition from the God, and that the subsequent generations were to receive it from these contemporaries – what would follow?”
Philosophical Fragments • Soren Kierkegaard
