“Look at the moon in the sky, not the one in the lake.”
Rumi

David Foster Wallace

T.S. Eliot
“But, of course, only those who have personality and emotions know what it means to want to escape from these things.”
T.S. Eliot

Albert Camus
“I spent a long time looking at faces, drinking in smiles. Am I happy or unhappy? It’s not a very important question. I live with such frenzied intensity.

Albert Camus, Notebooks, 1935-1951

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
