“But that which is useful is the better.”
Book III • Marcus Aurelius“ "Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life."”
The Analects of Confucius • Confucius“The only difference between a caprice and a life-long passion is that the caprice lasts a little longer.”
The Picture of Dorian Gray • Oscar Wilde““In the search for truth man makes two steps forward and one step back. Suffering, mistakes, and weariness of life thrust them back, but the thirst for truth and stubborn will drive them on and on.””
Seagull • Anton Chekhov“An old proverb fetched from the outward and visible world says: "Only the man that works gets the bread." Strangely enough this proverb does not aptly apply in that world to which it expressly belongs. For the outward world is subjected to the law of imperfection, and again and again the experience is repeated that he too who does not work gets the bread, and that he who sleeps gets it more abundantly than the man who works. In the outward world everything is made payable to the bearer, this world is in bondage to the law of indifference, and to him who has the ring, the spirit of the ring is obedient, whether he be Noureddin or Aladdin, and he who has the world's treasure, has it, however he got it.”
Fear and Trembling • Soren Kierkegaard
