“The tragedy of old age is not that one is old, but that one is young.”
The Picture of Dorian Gray • Oscar Wilde“The phoenix hope, can wing her way through the desert skies, and still defying fortune's spite; revive from ashes and rise.”
Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes“The Great War differed from all ancient wars in the immense power of the combatants and their fearful agencies of destruction, and from all modern wars in the utter ruthlessness with which it was fought. ... Europe and large parts of Asia and Africa became one vast battlefield on which after years of struggle not armies but nations broke and ran. When all was over, Torture and Cannibalism were the only two expedients that the civilized, scientific, Christian States had been able to deny themselves: and they were of doubtful utility.”
Never Give In! • Winston S Churchill“It is a base thing for the countenance to be obedient and to regulate and compose itself as the mind commands, and for the mind not to be regulated and composed by itself.”
Book VII • Marcus Aurelius“Theirs, too, is the word-coining genius, as if thought plunged into a sea of words and came up dripping.”
The Common Reader • Virginia Woolf
