Ջոն (John Goolvart)

“It is the dead, not the living, who make the longest demands.”
― Sophocles, Antigone

“But I must at the very beginning lay down this principle—friendship can only exist between good men.”
― Marcus Tullius Cicero, Treatises on Friendship and Old Age

“You could not be born at a better period than the present, when we have lost everything.”
― Simone Weil, Gravity and Grace

“For the fear of death is indeed the pretense of wisdom, and not real wisdom, being a pretense of knowing the unknown; and no one knows whether death, which men in their fear apprehend to be the greatest evil, may not be the greatest good. Is not this ignorance of a disgraceful sort, the ignorance which is the conceit that a man knows what he does not know? And in this respect only I believe myself to differ from men in general, and may perhaps claim to be wiser than they are:—that whereas I know but little of the world below, I do not suppose that I know: but I do know that injustice and disobedience to a better, whether God or man, is evil and dishonorable, and I will never fear or avoid a possible good rather than a certain evil.”
― Plato, The Trial and Death of Socrates
