John  Green
“Some tourists think Amsterdam is a city of sin, but in truth it is a city of freedom. And in freedom, most people find sin.”
John Green, The Fault in Our Stars

J.M. Coetzee
“When all else fails, philosophize.”
J.M. Coetzee, Disgrace

Francesco Petrarca
“A short cut to riches is to subtract from our desires.”
Francesco Petrarch

Hermann Hesse
“Times of terror and the deepest misery may arrive, but if there is to be any happiness in this misery it can only be a spiritual happiness, related to the past in the rescue of the culture of early ages and to the future in a serene and indefatigable championship of the spirit in a time which would otherwise completely swallow up the material.”
Hermann Hesse, The Glass Bead Game

Albert Camus
“If Aliosha had come to the conclusion that neither God nor immortality existed, he would immediately have become an atheist and a socialist. For socialism is not only a question of the working classes; it is above all, in its contemporary incarnation, a question of atheism, a question of the tower of Babel, which is constructed without God's help, not to reach to the heavens, but to bring the heavens down to earth.”
Albert Camus, The Rebel
