“Put all your eggs in one basket -- and watch that basket!”
The Tragedy of Pudd'nhead Wilson • Mark Twain“Train up a fig-tree in the way it should go, and when you are old sit under the shade of it.”
Dombey and Son • Charles Dickens“There is no such thing as a good influence. Because to influence a person is to give him one's own soul. He does not think his natural thoughts, or burn with his natural passions. His virtures are not real to him. His sins, if there are such thing as sins, are borrowed. He becomes an echo of someone else's music, an actor of a part that has not been written for him.”
The Picture of Dorian Gray • Oscar Wilde““He had cast out of heaven his dim star; it had fallen, and its track was lost in the darkness of night. It would never return to the sky again, because life was given only once and never came a second time. If he could have turned back the days and years of the past, he would have replaced the falsity with truth, the idleness with work, the boredom with happiness; he would have given back purity to those whom he had robbed of it. He would have found God and goodness, but that was as impossible as to put back the fallen star into the sky, and because it was impossible he was in despair.””
The Duel • Anton Chekhov“There is no devil and no hell. Your soul will be dead even sooner than your body: fear nothing further.”
Thus Spoke Zarathustra • F Nietzsche
