“Love ought not to make requests,” she said, “but shouldn’t make demands, either. Love must have the strength to reach certainty for itself. Then it no longer undergoes the power of attraction, but exerts it.”
Demian • Hermann Hesse“Hatred is a feeling which leads to the extinction of values”
Meditations on Quixote • Jose Ortega y Gasset“Art has to reveal to us ideas, formless spiritual essences. The supreme question about a work of art is out of how deep a life does it spring. The painting of Gustave Moreau is the painting of ideas. The deepest poetry of Shelley, the words of Hamlet bring our mind into contact with the eternal wisdom, Plato's world of ideas. All the rest is the speculation of schoolboys for schoolboys.”
Ulysses • James Joyce“ If ... Australia and Eurasia could have been interchanged ... Eurasians would be ... reduced to ... fragments. ”
Guns, Germs And Steel • Jared Diamond, Ph.D. (UCLA)“ “Wisdom... comes not from age, but from education and learning.””
The Cherry Orchard • Anton Chekhov
