“Gold conjures up a mist about a man, more destructive of all his old senses and lulling to his feelings than the fumes of charcoal.”
Nicholas Nickleby • Charles Dickens“You say "society must exact vengeance, and society must punish." Wrong on both counts. Vengeance comes from the individual and punishment from God.”
The Last Day of a Condemned Man • VICTOR HUGO“The skeleton of habit alone upholds the human frame.”
Mrs. Dalloway • Virginia Woolf“Where neither love nor hatred is in the game, a woman's game is mediocre.”
Beyond Good and Evil • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche“Often while playing, playing good, inoffensive, permissible games, I became too excited and violent for my sisters to put up with; this led to arguments and unhappiness, and when anger overcame me at such times, I was a terror, doing and saying things whose vileness I felt deeply and painfully at the very moment I did and said them. Then came vexing, dark hours of regret and contrition, and then the awful moment when I asked to be forgiven”
Demian • Hermann Hesse
