““…and I am here just like I was in Vienna and your hand is in my own as long as you leave it there.” (29th July 1920)”
Letters To Milena • Franz Kafka“That beauty which is meant by art is no mere accident of human life which people can take or leave, but a positive necessity of life if we are to live as nature meant us to, that is to say unless we are content to be less than men.”
Art and the Handicraftsman • Oscar Wilde“You forget that the kingdom of heaven suffers violence: and the kingdom of heaven is like a woman.”

Three Guineas • Virginia Woolf“I have always thought that clarity is a form of courtesy that the philosopher owes; moreover, this discipline of ours considers it more truly a matter of honor today than ever before to be open to all minds … This is different from the individual sciences which increasingly [interpose] between the treasure of their discoveries and the curiosity of the profane the tremendous dragon of their closed terminology.”
What is Philosophy? • Jose Ortega y Gasset
