“Every living creature is happy when he fulfills his destiny, that is, when he realizes himself, when he is being that which in truth he is. For this reason, Schlegel, inverting the relationship between pleasure and destiny, said, “We have a genius for what we like.” Genius, man’s superlative gift for doing something, always carries a look of supreme pleasure.”

What is Philosophy?  • Jose Ortega y Gasset

“So long as man remains free he strives for nothing so incessantly and so painfully as to find some one to worship.”

The Karamazov Brothers • Fyodor Dostoevski

“The tragedy of old age is not that one is old, but that one is young.”

The Picture of Dorian Gray • Oscar Wilde

““You have shown me a strange image, and they are strange prisoners.””

Republic • Plato

“As long as you live, keep learning how to live.”

Ad Lucilium Epistulae Morales • Lucius Annaeus Seneca
