Simone de Beauvoir
“One's life has value so long as one attributes value to the life of others.”
Simone de Beauvoir

Oscar Wilde
“Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.”
Oscar Wilde

George Bernard Shaw
“You use a glass mirror to see your face; you use works of art to see your soul.”
George Bernard Shaw, Back to Methuselah

William Wordsworth
“The best portion of a good man's life: his little, nameless unremembered acts of kindness and love.”
William Wordsworth, Lyrical Ballads

Thornton Wilder
“We all know that something is eternal. And it ain’t houses and it ain’t names, and it ain’t earth, and it ain’t even the stars . . . everybody knows in their bones that something is eternal, and that something has to do with human beings. All the greatest people ever lived have been telling us that for five thousand years and yet you’d be surprised how people are always losing hold of it. There’s something way down deep that’s eternal about every human being.”
Thornton Wilder, Our Town
