“Children's games are hardly games. Children are never more serious than when they play.”
Essays • Michel De Montaigne“As a wolf resembles a dog, so both a flatterer and an adulterer and a parasite resemble a friend. Take care then that instead of watch dogs you do not without knowing it let in mischievous wolves.”
Fragment • Epictetus“ “I understand that in our work - doesn't matter whether it's acting or writing ."”

Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes“Variant: Death hangs over thee. While thou livest, while it is in thy power, be good.”
Book IV • Marcus Aurelius
