“Είτανε μιά από τις εξαντλητικές εκείνες, τις υπεράνθρωπες νίκες, που αν δεν τις έτρωγε η αφάνεια της καθημερινής ζωής, αν είτανε δυνατό να γίνουν με κάθε τους λεπτομέρεια γνωστές, θα κινούσαν το θαυμασμό. Έτσι, συχνά, για τα μέτρια αποτελέσματα, χρειάζεται να χυθεί ο αιματερός ιδρώτας, όταν οι μεγάλες πράξεις γίνονται με μια χειρονομία απλή.”
― Άγγελος Τερζάκης, Η μενεξεδένια πολιτεία

“Skepticism is the tonic of the mind .”

“I only know that people call me a feminist whenever I express sentiments that differentiate me from a doormat.”
― Zadie Smith

“Why love the healthy, confident, proud and happy?They don't need it. They take love as their rightful due, as the duty owed to them, they accept it indifferently and arrogantly. Other people's devotion is just another gift to them, a clasp to wear in the hair, a bangle for the wrist, not the whole meaning and happiness of their lives. Love can truly help only those not favoured by fate, the distressed and disadvantaged, those who are less than confident and not beautiful, the meek-minded. When love is given to them it makes up for what life has taken away. They alone know how to love and be loved in the right way, humbly and with gratitude.”
― Stefan Zweig
