See All“But there certainly are not so many men of large fortune in the world as there are pretty women to deserve them.”
Mansfield Park • Jane Austen““It was a familiar feeling. This feeling of being incomplete in just about every sense. An unfinished jigsaw of a human.””
Midnight Library • Matt Haig“Happiness and freedom begin with a clear understanding of one principle: Some things are within our control, and some things are not. It is only after you have faced up to this fundamental rule and learned to distinguish between what you can and can't control that inner tranquility and outer effectiveness become possible.”
The Art of Living • Epictetus“Difficulty shows what men are. Therefore when a difficulty falls upon you, remember that God, like a trainer of wrestlers, has matched you with a rough young man. Why? So that you may become an Olympic conqueror; but it is not accomplished without sweat.”
Discourses • Epictetus““Friendships that are obtained by payments, and not by greatness or nobility of mind, may indeed be earned, but they are not secured.””
The Prince • Niccolo Machiavelli
