Fyodor Dostoevsky
“Nothing in this world is harder than speaking the truth, nothing easier than flattery.”
Fyodor Dostoevsky

Confucius
“What the superior man seeks is in himself; what the small man seeks is in others.”
Confucius

Ayn Rand
“I often think that he's the only one of us who's achieved immortality. I don't mean in the sense of fame and I don't mean he won't die someday. But he's living it. I think he is what the conception really means. You know how people long to be eternal. But they die with everyday that passes. . . They change, they deny, they contradict- and they call it growth. At the end there is nothing left, nothing unreveresed or unbetrayed; as if there had never been an entity, only a succession of adjectives fading in and out of an unformed mass. How do they expect a permanence which they never held for a single moment? But Howard- one can imagine him living forever.”
Ayn Rand, The Fountainhead

Fyodor Dostoevsky
“It wasn't the New World that mattered... Columbus died almost without seeing it; and not really knowing what he had discovered. It's life that matters, nothing but life — the process of discovering, the everlasting and perpetual process, not the discovery itself, at all.”
Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Idiot

Ayn Rand
“To sell your soul is the easiest thing in the world. That's what everybody does every hour of his life. If I asked you to keep your soul - would you understand why that's much harder?”
Ayn Rand, The Fountainhead
