“Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.”
Sand and Foam • Kahlil Gibran“Remember that you ought to behave in life as you would at a banquet. As something is being passed around it comes to you; stretch out your hand, take a portion of it politely. It passes on; do not detain it. Or it has not come to you yet; do not project your desire to meet it, but wait until it comes in front of you. So act toward children, so toward a wife, so toward office, so toward wealth.”
The Enchiridion • Epictetus“The discovery of truth is prevented more effectively, not by the false appearance things present and which mislead into error, not directly by weakness of the reasoning powers, but by preconceived opinion, by prejudice.”
Parerga and Paralipomena • Arthur Schopenhauer“A man is not idle because he is absorbed in thought. There is visible labor and there is invisible labor.”
Les Misérables • VICTOR HUGO“Idleness is the beginning of all psychology. What? Could it be that psychology is -- a vice?”
Twilight of the Idols • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
