See All“Difficulty shows what men are. Therefore when a difficulty falls upon you, remember that God, like a trainer of wrestlers, has matched you with a rough young man. Why? So that you may become an Olympic conqueror; but it is not accomplished without sweat.”
Discourses • Epictetus“It is a lovely night, and they are much to be pitied who have not been taught to feel, in some degree, as you do; who have not, at least, been given a taste for Nature in early life. They lose a great deal.”
Mansfield Park • Jane Austen“In love, no one can harm anyone else; we are each responsible for our own feelings and cannot blame someone else for what we feel.”
The Alchemist • Paulo Coelho“If I seem happy to you . . . You could never say anything that would please me more. For men are made for happiness, and anyone who is completely happy has a right to say to himself, 'I am doing God's will on earth.' All the righteous, all the saints, all the holy martyrs were happy.”
The Karamazov Brothers • Fyodor Dostoevski“Man grows used to everything, the scoundrel.”
