Francis of Assisi
“While you are proclaiming peace with your lips, be careful to have it even more fully in your heart.”
St. Francis of Assisi

Ryūnosuke Akutagawa
“The human heart harbors two conflicting sentiments. Everyone of course sympathizes with people who suffer misfortunes. Yet when those people manage to overcome their misfortunes, we feel a certain disappointment. We may even feel (to overstate the case somewhat) a desire to plunge them back into those misfortunes. And before we know it, we come (if only passively) to harbor some degree of hostility toward them.”
Ryūnosuke Akutagawa, Rashōmon and Seventeen Other Stories

Francis of Assisi
“Start by doing what is necessary, then what is possible, and suddenly you are doing the impossible.”
St. Francis Of Assisi

Ryūnosuke Akutagawa
“I have no conscience at all -- least of all an artistic conscience. All I have is nerves.”
Ryūnosuke Akutagawa, Rashōmon and Seventeen Other Stories

Osamu Dazai
“This novel was doomed from the start. All posture and no substance. Whether I write one page or a hundred, it amounts to the same thing. Though I knew this from the start.”
Osamu Dazai, The Flowers of Buffoonery
