““In all the universe nothing remains permanent and unchanged but the spirit.””
Seagull • Anton Chekhov“How singular is the thing called pleasure, and how curiously related to pain, which might be thought to be the opposite of it; for they never come to a man together, and yet he who pursues either of them is generally compelled to take the other. They are two, and yet they grow together out of one head or stem.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato“You ain't worth a greased lack pin to ram you into hell.”
Of Mice and Men • John Steinbeck“Procrastination is the thief of time, collar him.”
David Copperfield • Charles Dickens“Deception, flattering, lying, deluding, talking behind the back, putting up a false front, living in borrowed splendor, wearing a mask, hiding behind convention, playing a role for others and for oneself -- in short, a continuous fluttering around the solitary flame of vanity -- is so much the rule and the law among men that there is almost nothing which is less comprehensible than how an honest and pure drive for truth could have arisen among them.”
On Truth and Lies in a Nonmoral Sense • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
