Richard Dawkins
“We are survival machines – robot vehicles blindly programmed to preserve the selfish molecules known as genes. This is a truth which still fills me with astonishment.”
Richard Dawkins, The Selfish Gene

Marcus Aurelius
“Our inward power, when it obeys nature, reacts to events by accommodating itself to what it faces - to what is possible. It needs no specific material. It pursues its own aims as circumstances allow; it turns obstacles into fuel. As a fire overwhelms what would have quenched a lamp. What's thrown on top of the conflagration is absorbed, consumed by it - and makes it burn still higher.”
Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

Friedrich Nietzsche
“Was it not part of the secret black art of truly grand politics of revenge, of a farseeing, subterranean, slowly advancing, and premeditated revenge, that Israel must itself deny the real instrument of its revenge before all the world as a mortal enemy and nail it to the cross, so that 'all the world,' namely all the opponents of Israel, could unhesitatingly swallow just this bait? And could spiritual subtlety imagine any more dangerous bait than this? Anything to equal the enticing, intoxicating, overwhelming, and undermining power of that symbol of the 'holy cross,' that ghastly paradox of a 'God on the cross,' that mystery of an unimaginable ultimate cruelty and self-crucifixion of God for the salvation of man?”
Friedrich Nietzsche, On the Genealogy of Morals / Ecce Homo

Marcus Aurelius
“You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.”
Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

Marcus Aurelius
“لا تُعلّق سعادتك على آرائ الآخرين فيك ولا تضع هناءك في أيديهم. ذلك " استرقاق " طوعي و " مصادرة " حياة و " نفي " خارج الذات. و ما كنت لترضي أيًّا من ذلك لو كنت تعرف إسمه الحقيقي.”
ماركوس أوريليوس, التأملات
