Thomas Carlyle
“Doubtless it was the Atlantic Ocean that carried Columbus to America; lucky for the Atlantic, and for Columbus and us: but the Atlantic did not quite vote that way from the first; nay IT'S votes, I believe, were very various at different stages of the matter!”
― Thomas Carlyle, HISTORY OF FRIEDRICH II OF PRUSSIA "FREDERICK THE GREAT" Volumes 1 & 2

“Você pode levar Maomé até o altar, Jeeves, mas não pode forçá-lo a casar com a montanha”
― Wodehouse P. G

“Das ist das dümmste Handwerk, das einer treiben kann. Rate sich jeder selbst und tue, was er nicht
lassen kann. Gerät es gut, so freue er sich seiner Weis- heit und seines Glücks; läufts übel ab, dann
bin ich bei der Hand. Wer ein Übel los sein will, der weiß immer, was er will; wer was Bessers will, als er hat, der ist ganz starblind - ja ja! Lacht nur - er spielt Blindekuh, er ertappts vielleicht; aber was?
Tut, was ihr wollt: es ist ganz einerlei!”
― Goethe Johann-Wolfgang

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“Von jedem was dem Menschen Sonderbares begegnet, wird er innig gerührt. Ein Ubel, das vorüber ist, wird ihm zu einem Schatze der Erinnerung für sein ganzes Leben.”
― Goethe

George Orwell
“The great enemy of clear language is insincerity. When there is a gap between one’s real and one’s declared aims, one turns, as it were instinctively, to long words and exhausted idioms, like a cuttlefish squirting out ink.”
― George Orwell, Essays
