See All“I tell ya a guy gets too lonely an' he gets sick.”
Of Mice and Men • John Steinbeck“Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few.”
Never Give In! • Winston S Churchill“Her reverence for the divine, her generosity, her inability not only to do wrong but even to conceive of doing it. And the simple way she lived—not in the least like the rich. ”
Book I • Marcus Aurelius“As there are misanthropists, or haters of men, there are also misologists or haters of ideas, and both spring from the same cause, which is ignorance of the world. Misanthropy arises from too great confidence of inexperience; you trust a man and think him altogether true and good and faithful, and then in a little while he turns out to be false and knavish; and then another and another, and when this has happened several times to a man, especially within the circle of his most trusted friends, as he deems them, and he has often quarreled with them, he at last hates all men, and believes that no one has any good in him at all. ...The reason is that a man, having to deal with other men, has no knowledge of them; for if he had knowledge he would have known the true state of the case, that few are the good and few the evil, and that the great majority are in the interval between them.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato“Children's games are hardly games. Children are never more serious than when they play.”
Essays • Michel De Montaigne
