Oscar Wilde
“Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.”
Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde
“Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.”
Oscar Wilde

Hermann Hesse
“Every man is more than just himself; he also represents the unique, the very special and always significant and remarkable point at which the world's phenomena intersect, only once in this way, and never again. That is why every man's story is important, eternal, sacred; that is why every man, as long as he lives and fulfills the will of nature, is wondrous, and worthy of consideration. In each individual the spirit has become flesh, in each man the creation suffers, within each one a redeemer is nailed to the cross.”
Hermann Hesse , Demian: Die Geschichte von Emil Sinclairs Jugend

Hermann Hesse
“Those who are too lazy and comfortable to think for themselves and be their own judges obey the laws. Others sense their own laws within them.”
Hermann Hesse, Demian

Oscar Wilde
“I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying.”
Oscar Wilde, The Happy Prince and Other Stories
