George Orwell
“The essential act of war is destruction, not necessarily of human lives, but of the products of human labour. War is a way of shattering to pieces, or pouring into the stratosphere, or sinking in the depths of the sea, materials which might otherwise be used to make the masses too comfortable, and hence, in the long run, too intelligent.”
George Orwell, 1984

Paulo Coelho
“People want to change everything and, at the same time, want it all to remain the same.”
Paulo Coelho, The Devil and Miss Prym

Alexandre Dumas
“I am not proud, but I am happy; and happiness blinds, I think, more than pride.”
Alexandre Dumas, The Count of Monte Cristo

George Orwell
“Perhaps one did not want to be loved so much as to be understood.”
George Orwell, 1984

Louisa May Alcott
“...for love casts out fear, and gratitude can conquer pride.”
Louisa May Alcott, Little Women
