“Children delight in being frightened of storms. It exercises some need within them. The guns had much the same effect on us. It was like fireworks gone mad. It made me feel I was at the centre of the universe.”
Alice Winn, In Memoriam

“What is a good man’s role? To offer himself to fate. It is a great consolation to be moved along with the universe. Whatever it is that ordered us so to live and so to die, it binds the divine beings by the same necessity. An inevitable course conveys the human and the divine alike. It was the author and ruler of the world who wrote the decrees of fate, but he follows them himself.”
Anthony A. Long, Epictetus: A Stoic and Socratic Guide to Life

Sarah Bakewell
“As I went on, I got the eerie feeling of blending again with my twenty-year-old self, especially as my copies of the books were filled with that self’s weirdly emphatic juvenile marginalia.”
Sarah Bakewell, At the Existentialist Café: Freedom, Being, and Apricot Cocktails with Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, Albert Camus, Martin Heidegger, Maurice Merleau-Ponty and Others

Massimo Pigliucci
“Cicero concluded that “the actual hitting of the mark [is] to be chosen but not to be desired,”
Massimo Pigliucci, How to Be a Stoic: Using Ancient Philosophy to Live a Modern Life

“Ellwood smiled, although the words stabbed a little. Gaunt was the only person around whom Ellwood allowed himself to talk about things like souls.”
Alice Winn, In Memoriam
