“Sing away sorrow, cast away care.”
Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes“Man is a substantial emigrant on a pilgrimage of being, and it is accordingly meaningless to set limits to what he is capable of being.”
History as a System • Jose Ortega y Gasset“It is better to be hated for what you are than loved for what you are not.”
Autumn Leaves • Andre Gide“The rain is ever falling, drip, drip, drip, by day and night, upon the broad flagged terrace-pavement.”
Bleak House • Charles Dickens“Keeping up appearances, living in borrowed finery, wearing masks, the drapery of convention, play-acting for the benefit of others and oneself ... the constant fluttering of human beings around the one flame of vanity is so much the rule and the law that there is virtually nothing which defies understanding so much as the fact that an honest and pure drive towards truth should ever have emerged in them. They are deeply immersed in illusions and dream-images; their eyes merely glide across the surface of things and see 'forms'; nowhere does their perception lead to truth.”
The Gay Science • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
