Fyodor Dostoevsky
“If anything is wrong with your nose, they send you to Paris: there, they say, is a European specialist who cures noses. If you go to Paris, he'll look at your nose; I can only cure your right nostril, he'll tell you, for I don't cure the left nostril, that's not my speciality, but go to Vienna, there there's a specialist who will cure your left nostril.”
Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

Friedrich Nietzsche
“That for which we find words is something already dead in our hearts”
Friedrich Nietzsche

H.L. Mencken
“School days, I believe, are the unhappiest in the whole span of human existence. They are full of dull, unintelligible tasks, new and unpleasant ordinances, brutal violations of common sense and common decency. It doesn't take a reasonably bright boy long to discover that most of what is rammed into him is nonsense, and that no one really cares very much whether he learns it or not.”
H.L. Mencken

Fyodor Dostoevsky
“So I shall tell Mitya how you kissed my hand, but I didn't kiss yours at all. And how he will laugh!” “Vile slut! Go away!”
Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

Friedrich Nietzsche
“You say 'I' and you are proud of this word. But greater than this- although you will not believe in it - is your body and its great intelligence, which does not say 'I' but performs 'I'.”
Friedrich Nietzsche, Thus Spoke Zarathustra
