See All“ You can’t be an important and life-changing presence for some people without also being a joke and an embarrassment to others.”
The Subtle Art Of Not Giving A F*Ck • Mark Manson“To learn to see -- to accustom the eye to calmness, to patience, and to allow things to come up to it; to defer judgment, and to acquire the habit of approaching and grasping an individual case from all sides. This is the first preparatory schooling of intellectuality. One must not respond immediately to a stimulus; one must acquire a command of the obstructing and isolating instincts.”
Twilight of the Idols • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche“Nothing is so firmly believed as that which we least know. ”
Essays • Michel De Montaigne“To be acutely conscious is a disease, a real, honest-to-goodness disease.”
Notes from Underground • Fyodor Dostoevski“We must never forget that we may also find meaning in life even when confronted with a hopeless situation, when facing a fate that cannot be changed. For what then matters is to bear witness to the uniquely human potential at its best, which is to transform a personal tragedy into a triumph, to turn one's predicament into a human achievement. When we are no longer able to change a situation-just think of an incurable disease such as inoperable cancer-we are challenged to change ourselves.”
Man's Search For Meaning • Viktor E Frankl
