Werner Heisenberg
“The first gulp from the glass of natural sciences will turn you into an atheist, but at the bottom of the glass God is waiting for you.”
Werner Heisenberg

Nicolás Gómez Dávila
“The barbarian either totally mocks or totally worships.

Nicolás Gómez Dávila, Escolios a una texto implícito: Selección

Larry McMurtry
“When Famous Shoes finished his song he noticed that the young white man was asleep. During the day he had not trusted enough, and had worn himself out with pointless scurryings. Perhaps even then the song he had just sung was working in the young man’s dreams; perhaps as he grew older he would learn to trust mysteries and not fear them.

Larry McMurtry, Comanche Moon

“The concept of “mental health” in our society is defined largely by the extent to which an individual behaves in accord with the needs of the system and does so without showing signs of stress.”

Joseph Joubert
“Those for whom the world is not enough: saints, conquerors, poets, and all lovers of books.”
Joseph Joubert, The Notebooks of Joseph Joubert: A Selection
