See All“It is a great folly to lose the inner man in order to gain the outer, that is, to give up the whole or the greater part of one's quiet, leisure, and independence for splendour, rank, pomp, titles and honours.”
Parerga and Paralipomena • Arthur Schopenhauer“Love is not to be found in someone else but in ourselves; we simply awaken it. But in order to do that, we need the other person.”
Eleven Minutes • Paulo Coelho“I was brought up in the Christian religion, and although I can scarcely sanction all the improper attempts to gain the emancipation of woman, all paganlike reminiscences also seem foolish to me. My brief and simple opinion is that woman is certainly as good as man-period. Any more discursive elaboration of the difference between the sexes or deliberation on which sex is superior is an idle intellectual occupation for loafers and bachelors.”
Stages on Life's Way • Soren Kierkegaard“ "If you look into your own heart, and you find nothing wrong there, what is there to worry about? What is there to fear?"”
The Analects of Confucius • Confucius“Whether he be an original or a plagiarist, man is the novelist of himself.”
History as a System • Jose Ortega y Gasset
