“Is man merely a mistake of God's? Or God merely a mistake of man?”
― Friedrich Nietzsche

“Don’t mourn your luck that’s failing now,
work gone wrong, your plans
all proving deceptive — don’t mourn them uselessly.
As one long prepared, and graced with courage,
say goodbye to her, the Alexandria that is leaving.
Above all, don’t fool yourself, don’t say
it was a dream, your ears deceived you:
don’t degrade yourself with empty hopes like these.”
― Constantine P. Cavafy/Κωνσταντίνος Π. Καβάφης

“Attachment leads to suffering.”
― Buddha

“One must do violence to the object of one's desire; when it surrenders, the pleasure is greater.”
― Marquis De Sade
