""Some of these men the devil will deceive. He sends a sort of dew - they think it is angels' food - coming out of the air as it were, and falling gently into their mouths ! They get the habit therefore of sitting gaping, as though they were catching flies! All this is really only pious fraud, for their souls are empty of real devotion. In their hearts is vanity and error, caused by their fantastic practices."" Dec 12, 2024 01:08AM

""He shewed me a little thing, the quantity of an hazel-nut, in the palm of my hand. I looked thereupon and thought: What may this be? And it was answered thus: It is all that is made. I marvelled how it might last, for methought it might suddenly have fallen to naught for little[ness]. And I was answered: It lasteth, and ever shall [last] for that God loveth it. And so All-thing hath the Being by the love of God."" Dec 04, 2024 06:54AM

Søren Kierkegaard
“A fire broke out backstage in a theatre. The clown came out to warn the public; they thought it was a joke and applauded. He repeated it; the acclaim was even greater. I think that's just how the world will come to an end: to general applause from wits who believe it's a joke.”
Soren Kierkegaard, Either/Or, Part I

Oscar Wilde
“Those who find ugly meanings in beautiful things are corrupt without being charming. This is a fault. Those who find beautiful meanings in beautiful things are the cultivated. For these there is hope. They are the elect to whom beautiful things mean only Beauty. There is no such thing as a moral or an immoral book. Books are well written, or badly written. That is all.”
Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray

Gabriel García Márquez
“Thus they went on living in a reality that was slipping away, momentarily captured by words, but which would escape irremediably when they forgot the values of the written letters.”
Gabriel García Márquez, One Hundred Years of Solitude

Umberto Eco
“Books are not made to be believed, but to be subjected to inquiry. When we consider a book, we mustn't ask ourselves what it says but what it means...”
Umberto Eco, The Name of the Rose

Gabriel García Márquez
“Death really did not matter to him but life did, and therefore the sensation he felt when they gave their decision was not a feeling of fear but of nostalgia.”
Gabriel García Márquez, One Hundred Years of Solitude
