“If lowborn men could stand up to those born to rule, religion, government, the whole world would fall to pieces ... So it would; so it will ... then the pieces will be put together again by such as destroyed it.”
The Acts of King Arthur and His Noble Knights • John Steinbeck““Oh, threats of Hell and Hopes of Paradise! / One thing at least is certain — This Life flies; / One thing is certain and the rest is Lies; / The Flower that once has blown for ever dies.””
Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam • Omar Khayyam“Man’s being is made of such strange stuff as to be partly akin to nature and partly not, at once natural and extranatural, a kind of ontological centaur, half immersed in nature, half transcending it.”
History as a System • Jose Ortega y Gasset““God is the same for all men, only men are different.””
The Duel • Anton Chekhov“Fear is a distorting mirror in which anything can appear as a caricature of itself, stretched to terrible proportions; once inflamed, the imagination pursues the craziest and most unlikely possibilities. What is most absurd suddenly seems the most probable.”
The Post Office Girl • Stefan Zweig
