“Sometimes even to live is an act of courage.”
― Lucius Annaeus Seneca

“The possible redemption from the predicament of irreversibility──of being unable to undo what one has done──is the faculty of forgiving. The remedy for unpredictability, for the chaotic uncertainty of the future, is contained in the faculty to make and keep promises. Both faculties depend upon plurality, on the presence and acting of others, for no man can forgive himself and no one can be bound by a promise made only to himself.”
― Hannah Arendt, The Human Condition

“The mind once enlightened cannot again become dark.”
― Thomas Paine, A Letter Addressed to the Abbe Raynal on the Affairs of North America

“One good schoolmaster is of more use than a hundred priests.”
― Thomas Paine, The Age of Reason
