Samuel Taylor Coleridge
“Common sense in an uncommon degree is what the world calls wisdom.”
Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Literary Remains

Nikola Tesla
“This work somehow awakened my dormant powers of will and I began to practice self-control. At first my resolutions faded like snow in April, but in a little while I conquered my weakness and felt a pleasure I never knew before – that of doing as I willed. In the course of time this vigorous mental exercise became second to nature. At the outset my wishes had to be subdued but gradually desire and will grew to be identical. After years of such discipline I gained so complete a mastery over myself that I toyed with passions which have meant destruction to some of the strongest men.”
Nikola Tesla, My Inventions: The Autobiography of Nikola Tesla

Federico García Lorca
“I will always be on the side of those who have nothing and who are not even allowed to enjoy the nothing they have in peace.”
Federico García Lorca

Samuel Taylor Coleridge
“Since then, at an uncertain hour,
That agony returns:
And till my ghastly tale is told,
This heart within me burns.”
Samuel Taylor Coleridge, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner

Samuel Taylor Coleridge
“What comes from the heart goes to the heart”
samuel taylor coleridge
