Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
“nothing contributes so much to tranquilize the mind as a steady purpose”
Mary Shelley

Jane Austen
“They had no conversation together, no intercourse but what the commonest civility required. Once so much to each other! Now nothing! There had been a time, when of all the large party now filling the drawing-room at Uppercross, they would have found it most difficult to cease to speak to one another. With the exception, perhaps, of Admiral and Mrs. Croft, who seemed particularly attached and happy, (Anne could allow no other exception even among the married couples) there could have been no two hearts so open, no tastes so simliar, no feelings so in unison, no countenances so beloved. Now they were as strangers; nay, worse than strangers, for they could never become aquainted. It was a perpetual estrangement.”
Jane Austen, Persuasion

William Makepeace Thackeray
“Which of us is happy in this world? Which of us has his desire? or, having it, is satisfied?”
William Makepeace Thackeray, Vanity Fair

Marcus Tullius Cicero
“A room without books is like a body without a soul.”
Marcus Tullius Cicero

Sophocles
“Time, which sees all things, has found you out.”
Sophocles, Oedipus Rex
