“„Mankind are not perfect, but one age is more or less hypocritical than another, and then simpletons say that its morality is high or low.“”
Le Pere Goriot • Honore de Balzac“Man is certainly stark mad; he cannot make a worm, and yet he will be making gods by dozens.”
Essays • Michel De Montaigne“They’re afraid because they have never accepted themselves. A community consisting exclusively of people afraid of the unknown in themselves! They all feel that the rules they live by are no longer valid, that they’re following outdated commandments; neither their religions nor their morality, nothing is suited to what we need. For a century and more, Europe has done nothing but study and build factories! They know exactly how many grams of powder it takes to kill someone, but they don’t know how to pray to God, they don’t even know how to be contented for an hour at a time.”
Demian • Hermann Hesse““In the search for truth man makes two steps forward and one step back. Suffering, mistakes, and weariness of life thrust them back, but the thirst for truth and stubborn will drive them on and on.””
Seagull • Anton Chekhov“Truly, whoever possesses little is that much less possessed: praised be a little poverty!”
Thus Spoke Zarathustra • F Nietzsche
