    Marcus Aurelius
    “Casting aside other things, hold to the precious few; and besides bear in mind that every man lives only the present, which is an indivisible point, and that all the rest of his life is either past or is uncertain. Brief is man's life and small the nook of the earth where he lives; brief, too, is the longest posthumous fame, buoyed only by a succession of poor human beings who will very soon die and who know little of themselves, much less of someone who died long ago.”
    Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

    Albert Camus
    “Get scared. It will do you good. Smoke a bit, stare blankly at some ceilings, beat your head against some walls, refuse to see some people, paint and write. Get scared some more.

So, please, do poetical justice to your soul and simply experience yourself.”

    Jean-Paul Sartre, Nausea

    Jean-Paul Sartre
    “This is what I thought: for the most banal even to become an adventure, you must (and this is enough) begin to recount it.

    But you have to choose: live or tell.”
    Jean-Paul Sartre, Nausea

    “Every time I hear a political speech or I read those of our leaders, I am horrified at having, for years, heard nothing which sounded human. It is always the same words telling the same lies. And the fact that men accept this, that the people’s anger has not destroyed these hollow clowns, strikes me as proof that men attribute no importance to the way they are governed; that they gamble – yes, gamble – with a whole part of their life and their so called 'vital interests.”
