Pablo Neruda
“I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close.”
Pablo Neruda, 100 Love Sonnets

Javier Marías, Los enamoramientos

Albert Einstein
“Any fool can know. The point is to understand.”
Albert Einstein

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

John Locke
“Reading furnishes the mind only with materials of knowledge; it is thinking that makes what we read ours.”
