“If there is anything beautiful other than absolute beauty, that can only be beautiful as far as it partakes of absolute beauty—and this I should say of everything. ...by beauty all things become beautiful. ...by greatness only great things become great and greater and greater, and by smallness the less becomes less.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato“The most miserable mortals are they that deliver themselves up to their palates, or to their lusts; the pleasure is short, and turns presently nauseous, and the end of it is either shame or repentance.”
Day's Collacon • Lucius Annaeus Seneca“There are very few monsters who warrant the fear we have of them.”
Autumn Leaves • Andre Gide“Someone who's on top of the world isn't much of an observer: happy people are poor psychologists. But someone who's troubled about something is on the alert. The perceived threat sharpens his senses - he takes in more than he usually does.”
The Post Office Girl • Stefan Zweig“There are men that will make you books, and turn them loose into the world, with as much dispatch as they would do a dish of fritters.”
Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes
