“Drag your thoughts away from your troubles — by the ears, by the heels, or any other way, so you manage it.”
The American Claimant • Mark Twain“To demand of strength that it should not express itself as strength, that it should not be a desire to overcome, a desire to throw down, a desire to become master, a thirst for enemies and resistances and triumphs, is just as absurd as to demand of weakness that it should express itself as strength.”
Genealogy of Morals • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche“ "The superior man understands what is right; the inferior man understands what will sell."”
The Analects of Confucius • Confucius“ "A superior man is modest in his speech but exceeds in his actions."”
The Analects of Confucius • Confucius“The fact is, that civilisation requires slaves. The Greeks were quite right there. Unless there are slaves to do the ugly, horrible, uninteresting work, culture and contemplation become almost impossible. Human slavery is wrong, insecure, and demoralizing. On mechanical slavery, on the slavery of the machine, the future of the world depends.”
The Soul of Man Under Socialism • Oscar Wilde
