Cesáreo

“There are more things, Lucilius, likely to frighten us than there are to crush us; we suffer more often in imagination than in reality.”
― Seneca, Letters from a Stoic

“[beware that] “many of what are called social problems are differences between the theories of intellectuals and the realities of the world—differences which many intellectuals interpret to mean that it is the real world that is wrong and needs changing.”
― Thomas Sowell, Intellectuals and Society

“todo socialismo, al poner en marcha la planificación económica, al acabar con la competencia y la propiedad privada, establece automáticamente un mecanismo que a la corta o a la larga liquida el pluralismo político y las libertades, lo quieran o no los planificadores.”
― Mario Vargas Llosa, La llamada de la tribu

“Remember that all we have is “on loan” from Fortune, which can reclaim it without our permission—indeed, without even advance notice. Thus, we should love all our dear ones, but always with the thought that we have no promise that we may keep them forever—nay, no promise even that we may keep them for long.”
― Seneca
