“If you sing of beauty though alone in the heart of the desert you will have an audience.”
Sand and Foam • Kahlil Gibran“Strictly speaking, the mass, as a psychological fact, can be defined without waiting for individuals to appear in mass formation. In the presence of one individual we can decide whether he is "mass" or not. The mass is all that which sets no value on itself — good or ill — based on specific grounds, but which feels itself "just like everybody," and nevertheless is not concerned about it; is, in fact, quite happy to feel itself as one with everybody else.”
the Revolt of the Masses • Jose Ortega y Gasset““There is no other way of guarding oneself from flatterers except letting men understand that to tell you the truth does not offend you.””
The Prince • Niccolo Machiavelli“Be not as one that hath ten thousand years to live; death is nigh at hand: while thou livest, while thou hast time, be good.”
Meditations • Marcus Aurelius“You forget that the kingdom of heaven suffers violence: and the kingdom of heaven is like a woman.”
Exiles • James Joyce
