““Vasudeva rose. “It is late,” he said, “let’s go to sleep. I can’t tell you that other thing, oh friend. You’ll learn it, or perhaps you know it already.

If I was able to say and teach it, I might be a wise man, but like this I am only a ferryman, and it is my task to ferry people across the river.” ””
Siddhartha • Hermann Hesse“You want to have proven to you that the soul is imperishable and immortal, and you think that the philosopher who is confident in death has but a vain and foolish confidence, if he thinks that he will fare better than one who has led another sort of life, in the world below, unless he can prove this; and you say that the strength and divinity of the soul, and of her existence prior to our becoming men, does not necessarily imply her immortality. ...For any man, who is not devoid of natural feeling, has reason to fear, if he has no knowledge or proof of the soul's immortality.

The Trials Of Socrates • Plato“Old age is always wakeful; as if, the longer linked with life, the less man has to do with aught that looks like death.”
Moby Dick • Herman Melville“A wise man loses nothing, if he but save himself.”
Essays • Michel De Montaigne“We can be truly successful only at something we’re willing to fail at.”
