The Analects of Confucius • Confucius“Do not meddle in the affairs of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger.”
The Fellowship of the Ring • J.R.R Tolkien“Yet living and dying, honour and dishonour, pain and pleasure, riches and poverty, and so forth are equally the lot of good men and bad. Things like these neither elevate nor degrade; and therefore they are no more good than they are evil.”
Book II • Marcus Aurelius““Siddhartha learned a great deal from the Samanas; he learned many ways of losing the Self. He traveled along the path of self-denial through pain, through voluntary suffering and conquering of pain, through hunger, thirst and fatigue. He traveled the way of self-denial through meditation, through the emptying of the mind through all images. Along these and other paths did he learn to travel. He lost his Self a thousand times and for days on end he dwelt in non-being. But although the paths took him away from Self, in the end they always led back to it.””
Siddhartha • Hermann Hesse“One cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well.”
A Room of One's Own • Virginia Woolf
