“Above all, don't lie to yourself. The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect he ceases to love.”
― Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

“What saves a man is to take a step. Then another step. It is always the same step, but you have to take it.”
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

“True love begins when nothing is looked for in return.”
― Antoine De Saint-Exupery

“Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth.”
― Henry David Thoreau, Walden or, Life in the Woods
