Gabriel García Márquez
“Elaboró el plan con tanto odio que la estremeció la idea de que lo habría hecho de igual modo si hubiera sido con amor,”
Gabriel Garcí­a Márquez, Cien años de soledad

Philipp Mainländer
“But at the bottom, the immanent philosopher sees in the entire universe only the deepest longing for absolute annihilation, and it is as if he clearly hears the call that permeates all spheres of heaven: Redemption! Redemption! Death to our life! and the comforting answer: you will all find annihilation and be redeemed!”
Philipp Mainländer, Die Philosophie der Erlösung

Christopher Lasch
“Our growing dependence on technologies no one seems to understand or control has given rise to feelings of powerlessness and victimization. We find it more and more difficult to achieve a sense of continuity, permanence, or connection with the world around us. Relationships with others are notably fragile; goods are made to be used up and discarded; reality is experienced as an unstable environment of flickering images. Everything conspires to encourage escapist solutions to the psychological problems of dependence, separation, and individuation, and to discourage the moral realism that makes it possible for human beings to come to terms with existential constraints on their power and freedom.”
Christopher Lasch, The Culture of Narcissism: American Life in an Age of Diminishing Expectations

Tommaso Campanella
“To learn what I know I have burned more midnight oil than you have drunk wine.”
Thomas Campanella

Herodotus
“They made it plain to everyone, however, and above all to the king himself, that although he had plenty of troops, he did not have many men.”
Herodotus, The Histories
