“It is ironic that the moment you can accept yourself as you are, you can easily change yourself and become different. So long as you dislike yourself it is difficult to change, for it is self-acceptance at the deepest level which frees us to move on”

“Whom then to credit? Whom to treasure?
On whom alone can we depend?
Who is there who will truly measure his acts and words to suit our end?
Who'll sow no calumnies around us?
Whose fond attentions will astound us?
Who'll never fault our vices, or whom shall we never find a bore?
Don't let a ghost be your bear-leader. don't waste your efforts on the air.
Just let yourself be your whole care, your loved one, honourable reader!
Deserving object: there can be nothing more lovable than he.”
― Евгений Онегин

“My friend,” said the orator to him, “do you believe the Pope to be the Anti-Christ?”
“I have never heard anyone say so,” answered Candide; “but whether he be or no, I am hungry."
"You do not deserve to eat! Hence, scoundrel! Away, wretch! Come not near me for your life!"
The orator's wife had been looking out of a window overhead. Seeing a man who doubted whether the Pope was anti-Christ. she emptied a chamber pot upon his head- an example of the excesses to which women are driven by religious zeal.”
