George Orwell
“Ultimately it is the Christian attitude which is self-interested and hedonistic, since the aim is always to get away from the painful struggle of earthly life and find eternal peace in some kind of Heaven or Nirvana. The humanist attitude is that the struggle must continue and that death is the price of life.”
George Orwell, Inside the Whale and Other Essays

Erich Maria Remarque
“Ah! Mother, Mother! You still think I am a child - why can I not put my head in your lap and weep? Why have I always to be strong and self-controlled? I would like to weep and be comforted too, indeed I am little more than a child; in the wardrobe still hang short, boy's trouser - it is such a little time ago, why is it over?”
Erich Maria Remarque, All Quiet on the Western Front

William Shakespeare
“We came crying hither.
Thou know’st the first time that we smell the air
We wawl and cry.”
William Shakespeare, King Lear

William Shakespeare
“Consider him well.—Thou owest the worm no silk, the beast no hide, the sheep no wool, the cat no perfume. Ha! Here’s three on ’s are sophisticated. Thou art the thing itself.
Unaccommodated man is no more but such a poor, bare, forked animal as thou art.—”
William Shakespeare, King Lear

George Orwell
“England was ruled by an aristocracy constantly recruited from parvenus”
George Orwell, England Your England
