“It was the first rift in my father’s sanctity, it was the first nick in the pillars on which my childish life had rested, and which every human being must destroy before he can become himself. It is of these experiences, invisible to everyone, that the inner, essential line of our destiny consists. That kind of rift and nick closes over again, it is healed and forgotten, but in the most secret chamber of the mind it continues to live and bleed.”
Demian • Hermann Hesse“Ah, but ignorance is better. At least then there's hope.”
Seagull • Anton Chekhov“Abundance, even of good things, prevents them from being valued; and scarcity, even in the case of what is bad, confers a certain value.”
Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes“A man far oftener appears to have a decided character from persistently following his temperament than from persistently following his principles.”
Human, All Too Human • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche“You will find rest from vain fancies if you perform every act in life as though it were your last.”
Book II • Marcus Aurelius
