Augustine of Hippo
“The mind commands the body and is instantly obeyed. The mind commands itself and meets resistance.”
St. Augustine of Hippo, Confessions

Paulo Coelho
“Don't waste your time with explanations: people only hear what they want to hear.”
Paulo Coelho

Juan Ramón Jiménez
“If they give you ruled paper, write the other way.”
Juan Ramón Jiménez, Invisible Reality

Arnold Bennett
“The chief beauty about time
is that you cannot waste it in advance.
The next year, the next day, the next hour are lying ready for you,
as perfect, as unspoiled,
as if you had never wasted or misapplied
a single moment in all your life.
You can turn over a new leaf every hour
if you choose.”
Arnold Bennett

Aldous Huxley
“Did you ever feel, as though you had something inside you that was only waiting for you to give it a chance to come out? Some sort of extra power that you aren't using - you know, like all the water that goes down the falls instead of through the turbines?”
Aldous Huxley, Brave New World
