Peter Newman

“Human beings are perhaps never more frightening than when they are convinced beyond doubt that they are right.”
― Laurens van der Post

“Even in our sleep, pain which cannot forget
falls drop by drop upon the heart
until, in our own despair, against our will,
comes wisdom through the awful grace of God.”
― Aeschylus

“There are just some kind of men who-who're so busy worrying about the next world they've never learned to live in this one, and you can look down the street and see the results.”
― Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird

“In a profound sense every man has two halves to his being; he is not one person so much as two persons trying to act in unison. I believe that in the heart of every human being there is something which I can only describe as a child of darkness who is equal and complementary to the more obvious child of light.”
― Laurens van der Post
