Ah! If you only knew the peace there is in an accepted sorrow.
-Madame Guion
We should not say that one man's hour is worth another man's hour, but rather that one man during an hour is worth just as much as another man during an hour. Time is everything, man is nothing. He is at the most time's carcass.
-Karl Marx
A human being has so many skins inside, covering the depths of the heart. We know so many things, but we don’t know ourselves!
Sometimes people are beautiful.
Not in looks.
Not in what they say.
Just in what they are.
-Markus Zusak
Booksellers are the most valuable destination for the lonely, given the numbers of books written because authors couldn't find anyone to talk to.
-Alain De Botton
Both the good and the pleasant present themselves to a man. The calm soul examines them well and discriminates. Yes, he prefers the good to the pleasant; but the fool chooses the pleasant out of greed and avarice.
