“There is no good reason why we should not develop and change until the last day we live.”
The Therapeutic Process: Essays and Lectures • Karen Horney““And there is nothing wastes so rapidly as liberality, for even whilst you exercise it you lose the power to do so.””
The Prince • Niccolo Machiavelli“But when returning into herself she [the soul] reflects; then she passes into the realm of purity, and eternity, and immortality, and unchangeableness, which are her kindred, and with them she ever lives, when she is by herself and is not let or hindered; then she ceases from her erring ways, and being in communion with the unchanging is unchanging. And this state of the soul is called wisdom.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato“Do not imagine, comrades, that leadership is a pleasure!”
Animal Farm • George Orwell“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
