“Be not as one that hath ten thousand years to live; death is nigh at hand: while thou livest, while thou hast time, be good.”
Meditations • Marcus Aurelius“A sense of humour is a sense of proportion.”
Sand and Foam • Kahlil Gibran“His ear heard more than was said to him, and his slow speech had overtones not of thought, but of understanding beyond thought.”
Of Mice and Men • John Steinbeck“Words are acoustical signs for concepts; concepts, however, are more or less definite image signs for often recurring and associated sensations, for groups of sensations. To understand one another, it is not enough that one use the same words; one also has to use the same words for the same species of inner experiences; in the end one has to have one's experiences in common.”
Beyond Good and Evil • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche““He lived in friendship beside Vasudeva, and sometimes they would exchange words with each other, few and well-considered words. Vasudeva was no friend of words, Siddhartha seldom succeeded in inducing him to speak.””
Siddhartha • Hermann Hesse
