See All““There is no other way of guarding oneself from flatterers except letting men understand that to tell you the truth does not offend you.””
The Prince • Niccolo Machiavelli“The more we study Art, the less we care for Nature.”
Intentions • Oscar Wilde“I cannot agree with those who rank modesty among the virtues. To the logician all things should be seen exactly as they are, and to underestimate one's self is as much a departure from truth as to exaggerate one's own powers.”
The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes • Arthur Conan Doyle“How can we explain simultaneously this general pattern of female parental care and also its numerous exceptions?”
Why Is Sex Fun?: The Evolution of Human Sexuality • Jared Diamond“The fact is, that civilisation requires slaves. The Greeks were quite right there. Unless there are slaves to do the ugly, horrible, uninteresting work, culture and contemplation become almost impossible. Human slavery is wrong, insecure, and demoralizing. On mechanical slavery, on the slavery of the machine, the future of the world depends.”
The Soul of Man Under Socialism • Oscar Wilde
