“In the case of most pains let this remark of Epicurus aid thee, that the pain is neither intolerable nor everlasting, if thou bear in mind that it has its limits, and if thou addest nothing to it in imagination...”
Book VII • Marcus Aurelius“Revolutions have never lightened the burden of tyranny. They have only shifted it to another shoulder.”
Man and Superman • George Bernard Shaw“Death must be so beautiful. To lie in the soft brown earth, with the grasses waving above one's head, and listen to silence. To have no yesterday, and no tomorrow. To forget time, to forgive life, to be at peace.”
The Canterville Ghost • Oscar Wilde“Those who talk most about the blessings of marriage and the constancy of its vows are the very people who declare that if the chain were broken and the prisoners left free to choose, the whole social fabric would fly asunder. You cannot have the argument both ways. If the prisoner is happy, why lock him in? If he is not, why pretend that he is?”
Man and Superman • George Bernard Shaw““You can kill someone in your heart. Stop loving them. And one day they die.””
My Sweet Orange Tree • José Mauro de Vasconcelos
