“Whatever this is that I am, it is flesh and a little spirit and an intelligence. ”
Book II • Marcus Aurelius“Scandal is gossip made tedious by morality.”
Lady Windermere's Fan • Oscar Wilde“The task of breaking a bad habit is like uprooting a powerful oak within us.”
Atomic Habits • James Clear“What is love? For the rabble love is a kind of variety, a transient vulgarity; the rabble's conception of love is best found in their obscene ditties, in prostitution and in the foul idioms they use when they are halfway sober, such as "shoving the donkey's foreleg in mud," or "putting dust on the head." My love for her, however, was of a totally different kind. I knew her from ancient times—strange slanted eyes, a narrow, half-open mouth, a subdued quiet voice. She was the embodiment of all my distant, painful memories among which I sought what I was deprived of, what belonged to me but somehow I was denied. Was I deprived forever?”
The Blind Owl • Sadegh Hedayat“Yoga in Mayfair or Fifth Avenue, or in any other place which is on the telephone, is a spiritual fake.”
Collected Works, vol. 11 • Carl Gustav Jung
