Jean-Paul Sartre
“All that I know about my life, it seems, I have learned in books.”
Jean-Paul Sartre

Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa
“The happiness which comes from long practice, which leads to the end of suffering, which at first is like poison, but at last like nectar - this kind of happiness arises from the serenity of one's own mind.”
Ved Vyasa, The Bhagavad Gita

Socrates
“I cannot teach anybody anything. I can only make them think”
Socrates

Louis de Bernières
“Love is a temporary madness, it erupts like volcanoes and then subsides. And when it subsides you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is.
Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion. That is just being in love, which any fool can do. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident.
Those that truly love have roots that grow towards each other underground, and, when all the pretty blossoms have fallen from their branches, they find that they are one tree and not two.”
Louis de Bernières, Corelli’s Mandolin

Pablo Neruda
“Let us forget with generosity those who cannot love us”
Pablo Neruda
