““We are no other than a moving row / Of Magic Shadow-shapes that come and go.””
Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam • Omar Khayyam“Our species is the only creative species, and it has only one creative instrument, the individual mind and spirit of a man. Nothing was ever created by two men. There are no good collaborations, whether in art, in music, in poetry, in mathematics, in philosophy. Once the miracle of creation has taken place, the group can build and extend it, but the group never invents anything. The preciousness lies in the lonely mind of a man.”
East Of Eden • John Steinbeck“If thou canst see sharp, look and judge wisely, says the philosopher.”
Book VIII • Marcus Aurelius“The surest way for those who want to rule is praising moderation, talking of peace and quiet.”
Oedipus • Lucius Annaeus Seneca“For after death, as they say, the genius of each individual, to whom he belonged in life, leads him to a certain place in which the dead are gathered together for judgment, whence they go into the world below, following the guide who is appointed to conduct them from this world to the other; and when they have there received their due and remained their time, another guide brings them back again after many revolutions of ages.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato
