Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil

Ivan Goncharov
“Memories are the height of poetry only when they are memories of happiness. When they graze wounds over which scars have formed they become an aching pain.”
Ivan Goncharov, Oblomov

Ernest Becker
“the essence of man is really his paradoxical nature, the fact that he is half animal and half symbolic.”
Ernest Becker, The Denial of Death

“The whole experience of being hit by a bullet is very interesting and I think worth describing in detail.”
