John Steinbeck
“It has always seemed strange to me...The things we admire in men, kindness and generosity, openness, honesty, understanding and feeling, are the concomitants of failure in our system. And those traits we detest, sharpness, greed, acquisitiveness, meanness, egotism and self-interest, are the traits of success. And while men admire the quality of the first they love the produce of the second.”
John Steinbeck, Cannery Row

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along.”
Mawlana Jalal-al-Din Rumi

Cormac McCarthy
“Between the wish and the thing the world lies waiting.”
Cormac McCarthy, All the Pretty Horses

Herman Melville
“There is no folly of the beast of the earth which is not infinitely outdone by the madness of man.”
Herman Melville, Moby-Dick or, The Whale

Seneca
“You act like mortals in all that you fear, and like immortals in all that you desire”
Lucius Annaeus Seneca, On the Shortness of Life: Life Is Long if You Know How to Use It
