“"The Poet had, who had made a show of attaching no importance to this literary game (though it gnawed at his heart that he himself had not written such beautiful letters, provoking replies even more beautiful), and having no one with whom to fall in love, had fallen in love with the letters themselves — which, as Niketas remarked with a smile — was not surprising, since in youth we are prone to fall in love with love.”
Baudolino • Umberto Eco“And now once again I asked myself the question: do I love her? And once more I could not answer, that is to say, again, for the hundreth time, I answered that I hated her.”
The Gambler • Fyodor Dostoevski“What does the brain matter compared with the heart?”
Mrs. Dalloway • Virginia Woolf“So the lion is the law-breaker. Just as to the primitive man the lion is the lawbreaker, the great nuisance, dangerous to human beings and to animals, that breaks into the Kraal at night and fetches the bull out of the herd: he is the destructive instinct.”
Nietzsche's Zarathustra • Carl Gustav Jung““We were all big. Big and sad people who had their share of the same sadness, with little bits and pieces.””
My Sweet Orange Tree • José Mauro de Vasconcelos
