― Unknown, The Poetic Edda: Stories of the Norse Gods and Heroes

“Man," said the Ghost, "if man you be in heart, not adamant, forbear that wicked cant until you have discovered What the surplus is, and Where it is.

― Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol

“In other words, everything has its own place and function. That applies to people, although many don’t seem to realize it, stuck as they are in the wrong job, the wrong marriage, or the wrong house.

One man’s food is often another man’s poison, and what is glamorous and exciting to some can be a dangerous trap to others.”
― Benjamin Hoff, The Tao of Pooh
