“Being is unrecognizable unless it manages to seem, and seeming is feeble unless it manages to be.”

Gorgias • Plato

“The role of the disappointed lover of a maiden or of any single woman might be ridiculous; but the role of a man who was pursuing a married woman, and who made it the purpose of his life at all cost to draw her into adultery, was one which had in it something beautiful and dignified and could never be ridiculous.”

Anna Karenina • Leo Tolstoy

“Love that only which happens to thee and is spun with the thread of thy destiny. For what is more suitable?”

Book VII • Marcus Aurelius

“my lad, as far as I can see, free-thinking women are all monsters." ”

Fathers and Sons • Ivan Turgenev

“The reasonable man adapts himself to the world: the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man.”

Maxim for Revolutionists • George Bernard Shaw
