“A life surrounded by good people is a successful life. It might not be success as defined by society, but thanks to the people around you, each day is a successful day'.”
Hwang Bo-reum, Welcome to the Hyunam-Dong Bookshop

Natalie Haynes
“Classics is, to me, the unicycle of education. It isn’t especially practical or useful to learn Ancient History. It isn’t necessary to learn Latin, or to read Virgil, however much it helps your spelling. It won’t get you a well-paid job in a fancy office, and it won’t necessarily make you attractive to the opposite sex (maybe just to the really good people). But none of that is important compared with the simple fact that studying Classics is brilliant. It’s terrific to know an alphabet you didn’t learn as a five-year-old. It’s amazing to learn about a world far away from your own. It’s wonderful to find a whole new world of literature, history, art, architecture, religion, philosophy, politics and society.”
Natalie Haynes, The Ancient Guide to Modern Life

“Why would you want to look like her? Why would a falcon want to be a nightingale?”
Sue Lynn Tan, Daughter of the Moon Goddess

“For, as is well known, nothing on earth puts more pressure on the human mind than nothing.”
Stefan Zweig, Chess Story

“Personally I take more satisfaction in understanding people than in passing judgement on them.”
