Oscar Wilde

Milan Kundera
“Anyone whose goal is 'something higher' must expect someday to suffer vertigo. What is vertigo? Fear of falling? No, Vertigo is something other than fear of falling. It is the voice of the emptiness below us which tempts and lures us, it is the desire to fall, against which, terrified, we defend ourselves.”
Milan Kundera, The Unbearable Lightness of Being

Albert Camus
“Don’t walk in front of me… I may not follow

Albert Camus

Mark Twain

Mark Twain

William Shakespeare
“My bounty is as boundless as the sea,

The more I have, for both are infinite.”
William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet
