“What good is the warmth of summer, without the cold of winter to give it sweetness.”
Travels with Charley: In Search of America • John Steinbeck“It is a lovely night, and they are much to be pitied who have not been taught to feel, in some degree, as you do; who have not, at least, been given a taste for Nature in early life. They lose a great deal.”
Mansfield Park • Jane Austen“One doesn't discover new lands without consenting to lose sight of the shore for a very long time.”
The Counterfeiters • Andre Gide“It is no use to blame the looking glass if your face is awry.”
The Inspector General • Nikolai Gogol“Let us... be careful of admitting into our souls the notion that there is no truth or health or soundness in any arguments at all; but let us rather say that there is as yet no health in us, and that we must quit ourselves like men and do our best to gain health—you and all other men with a view to the whole of your future life, and I myself with a view to death.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato
