― Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, Introductory Lectures on Aesthetics

“Reading ought to mean understanding; writing ought to mean knowing something; believing ought to mean comprehending; when you desire a thing, you will have to take it; when you demand it, you will not get it; and when you are experienced, you ought to be useful to others.”
― Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Maxims and Reflections

“I am Ubik. Before the universe was, I am. I made the suns. I made the worlds. I created the lives and the places they inhabit; I move them here, I put them there. They go as I say, then do as I tell them. I am the word and my name is never spoken, the name which no one knows. I am called Ubik, but that is not my name. I am. I shall always be.”
― Philip K. Dick, Ubik

“Real obscurantism is not to hinder the spread of what is true, clear, and useful, but to bring into vogue what is false.”
― Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Maxims and Reflections
