“It is better to be beautiful than to be good. But ... it is better to be good than to be ugly.”

The Picture of Dorian Gray • Oscar Wilde

“Could they be perpetrated without being known, in a country like this, where social and literary intercourse is on such a footing, where every man is surrounded by a neighbourhood of voluntary spies, and where roads and newspapers lay everything open?”

Northanger Abbey • Jane Austen

“After experiencing profound emotions, one sleeps profoundly.”

Beware of Pity • Stefan Zweig

Mansfield Park • Jane Austen

“The road up and the road down is one and the same. ”

Fragments • Heraclitus
