“Compassion is the basis of morality.”
― Arthur Schopenhauer

“Oh Christ, the exhaustion of not knowing anything. It's so tiring and hard on the nerves. It really takes it out of you, not knowing anything. You're given comedy and miss all the jokes. Every hour you get weaker. Sometimes, as I sit alone in my flat in London and stare at the window, I think how dismal it is, how heavy, to watch the rain and not know why it falls.”
― Martin Amis, Money: A Suicide Note

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

“A First Sign of the Beginning of Understanding is the Wish to Die.”
― Franz Kafka
