““I wanted to excel in your eyes, show my strength of will, wait before writing you, first finish a document, but the room is empty, no one is minding me – it’s as if someone said: leave him alone, can’t you see how engrossed he is in his own affairs, it’s as if he had a fist in his mouth. So I only wrote half a page and am once again with you, lying on this letter like I lay next to you back then in the forest.” (16 July 1920)”
Letters To Milena • Franz Kafka“Often the best in us springs from the worst in us.”
Reflections on Literature and Morality • Andre Gide“And will he who is a true lover of wisdom, and is persuaded in like manner that only in the world below can he worthily enjoy her, still repine at death? Will he not depart with joy? Surely he will, my friend, if he be a true philosopher. ...And if this be true, he would be very absurd, ...if he were to fear death.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato“The Times is speechless, and takes three columns to express its speechlessness.”
Never Give In! • Winston S Churchill“Pure and complete sorrow is as impossible as pure and complete joy.”
War and Peace • Leo Tolstoy
