See All“If your ultimate and highest goal is to have life made easy and sociable, then never become involved with Christianity, shun it, because it wants the very opposite; it wants to make your life difficult and to do this by making you alone before God. No earnest person, therefore, wearies of tracking down the illusions, because insofar as he is a thinking person he fears most to be in error, however cozy the arrangement is, however good the company—and as a Christian he fears most to be lost without knowing it—however flattering, however splendid the surroundings and the company are.”
Works of Love • Soren Kierkegaard“Where neither love nor hatred is in the game, a woman's game is mediocre.”
Beyond Good and Evil • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche“Patriotism is merely a religion--love of country, worship of country, devotion to the country's flag and honor and welfare.”
As Regards Patriotism • Mark Twain“The literary woman, unsatisfied, agitated, desolate in heart and entrails, listening every minute with painful curiosity to the imperative which whispers from the depths of her organism "aut liberi aut libri [either children or books]."”
Twilight of the Idols • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche““We were all big. Big and sad people who had their share of the same sadness, with little bits and pieces.””
My Sweet Orange Tree • José Mauro de Vasconcelos
