Simone de Beauvoir
“Surviving one’s own life, living on the other side of it like a spectator, is quite comfortable after all. You no longer expect anything, no longer fear anything, and every hour is like a memory.”
Simone de Beauvoir, The Mandarins

Emily Brontë
“If all else perished, and he remained, I should still continue to be; and if all else remained, and he were annihilated, the universe would turn to a mighty stranger: I should not seem a part of it.
My love for Linton is like the foliage in the woods: time will change it, I'm well aware, as winter changes trees.
My love for Heatcliff resembles the eternal rocks beneath: a source of little visible delight, but necessary.”
Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights

Emily Brontë
“Terror made me cruel . . .”
Emily Bronte, Wuthering Heights

Charlotte Brontë
“there is no happiness like that of being loved by your fellow-creatures, and feeling that your presence is an addition to their comfort.”
Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre

Peter Sloterdijk
“We can trace the communitarian fantasy that lies at the root of all humanism back to the model of a literary society, in which participation through reading the canon reveals a common love of inspiring messages. At the heart of humanism so understood we discover a cult or club fantasy: the dream of the portentous solidarity of those who have been chosen to be allowed to read. In the ancient world—indeed, until the dawn of the modern nation-states—the power of reading actually did mean something like membership of a secret elite; linguistic knowledge once counted in many places as the provenance of sorcery. In Middle English the word 'glamour' developed out of the word 'grammar'. The person who could read would be thought easily capable of other impossibilities.”
Peter Sloterdijk, Regels voor het Mensenpark
