“As Hegel said, tragedy was not the conflict between right and wrong but right and right , a dilemma none of us who wanted participate in history could escape.”
Viet Thanh Nguyen, The Sympathizer

Victor Hugo
“This will destroy that. The book will kill the edifice.”
Victor Hugo, The Hunchback of Notre-Dame

Arthur Schopenhauer
“The more unintelligent a man is, the less mysterious existence seems to him.”
Arthur Schopenhauer

Bernhard Schlink
“When he answered, he went all the way back to beginnings. He instructed me about the individual, about freedom and dignity, about the human being as subject and the fact that one may not turn him into an object. “Don’t you remember how furious you would get as a little boy when Mama knew better what was good for you? Even how far one can act like this with children is a real problem. It is a philosophical problem, but philosophy does not concern itself with children. It leaves them to pedagogy, where they’re not in very good hands. Philosophy has forgotten about children.” He smiled at me. “Forgotten them forever, not just sometimes, the way I forget about you.”
“But . . .”
“But with adults I see absolutely no justification for setting other people’s views of what is good for them above their own ideas of what is good for themselves.”
“Not even if they themselves are happy about it later?”
He shook his head. “We’re not talking about happiness, we’re talking about dignity and freedom. Even as a little boy, you knew the difference. It was no comfort to you that your mother was always right.”
Bernhard Schlink

Victor Hugo
“a mother who loses her child can no longer believe in God”
Victor Hugo, The Hunchback of Notre-Dame
