“Remember that there are two kinds of beauty: one of the soul and the other of the body. That of the soul displays its radiance in intelligence, in chastity, in good conduct, in generosity, and in good breeding, and all these qualities may exist in an ugly man. And when we focus our attention upon that beauty, not upon the physical, love generally arises with great violence and intensity. I am well aware that I am not handsome, but I also know that I am not deformed, and it is enough for a man of worth not to be a monster for him to be dearly loved, provided he has those spiritual endowments I have spoken of.”
Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes““Sometimes we have to wait, for the best.””
My Sweet Orange Tree • José Mauro de Vasconcelos“ The rare people who do become truly exceptional at something do so not because they believe they’re exceptional. On the contrary, they become amazing because they’re obsessed with improvement. And that obsession (…) stems from an unerring belief that they are, in fact, not great at all.”
The Subtle Art Of Not Giving A F*Ck • Mark Manson“When a man understands the art of seeing, he can trace the spirit of an age and the features of a king even in the knocker on a door.”
The Hunchback of Notre Dame • VICTOR HUGO“When you wake up in the morning, tell yourself: The people I deal with today will be meddling, ungrateful, arrogant, dishonest, jealous, and surly. They are like this because they can't tell good from evil.”
Book II • Marcus Aurelius
