“I try to catch every sentence, every word you and I say, and quickly lock all these sentences and words away in my literary storehouse because they might come in handy.”
Seagull • Anton Chekhov“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“If you are going to sell yourself, you should at least get a good price.”
Beware of Pity • Stefan Zweig““Whereas the truth is that the State in which the rulers are most reluctant to govern is always the best and most quietly governed, and the State in which they are most eager, the worst.””
Republic • Plato“Dreams are symbolic in order that they cannot be understood; in order that the wish, which is the source of the dream, may remain unknown.”
Psychology of the Unconscious • Carl Gustav Jung
