“Suppose that there are two sorts of existences, one seen, and the other unseen. ...The seen is the changing, and the unseen is the unchanging. ...And further, is not one part of us body, and the rest of us soul? ...Then the soul is more like to the unseen, and the body to the seen? ...the soul is then dragged by the body into the region of the changeable, and wanders and is confused; the world spins round her, and she is like a drunkard when under their influence?”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato““I am for her an indispensable, integral part of her boudoir.””
The Duel • Anton Chekhov“Their return home to their father and a good life was always so satisfying and splendid; I realized keenly that that was the only proper, good, and desirable outcome, but the part of the story that took place among the wicked and the lost was by far the more appealing, and, if one were free to state and admit it, it was sometimes actually a downright shame that the prodigal repented and was found again”
Demian • Hermann Hesse“That's the nature of women ... not to love when we love them, and to love when we love them not.”
Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes“Look to the essence of a thing, whether it be a point of doctrine, of practice, or of interpretation.”
Book VIII • Marcus Aurelius
