See All“Poetry makes life what lights and music do the stage.”
The Pickwick Papers • Charles Dickens“Do not shorten the morning by getting up late, or waste it in unworthy occupations or in talk; look upon it as the quintessence of life, as to a certain extent sacred. Evening is like old age: we are languid, talkative, silly. Each day is a little life: every waking and rising a little birth, every fresh morning a little youth, every going to rest and sleep a little death.”
Counsels and Maxims • Arthur Schopenhauer“Crush humanity out of shape once more, under similar hammers, and it will twist itself into the same tortured forms. Sow the same seeds of rapacious licence and oppression over again, and it will surely yield the same fruit according to its kind.”
A Tale of Two Cities • Charles Dickens“Talent hits a target no one else can hit. Genius hits a target no one else can see.”
The World As Will and Representation • Arthur Schopenhauer“She dealt with moral problems the way a cleaver deals with meat: and in this case she had made up her mind.”
Dubliners • James Joyce
