Jean Piaget
“Each time one prematurely teaches a child something he could have discovered himself, that child is kept from inventing it and consequently from understanding it completely.”
Jean Piaget

Oscar Wilde
“Yet each man kills the thing he loves,
By each let this be heard,
Some do it with a bitter look,
Some with a flattering word,
The coward does it with a kiss,
The brave man with a sword!

Some kill their love when they are young,
And some when they are old;
Some strangle with the hands of Gold:
The kindest use a knife, because
The dead so soon grow cold.

Some love too little, some too long,
Some sell and others buy;
Some do the deed with many tears,
And some without a sigh:
For each man kills the thing he loves,
Yet each man does not die.”
Oscar Wilde, Selected Poems of Oscar Wilde including the Ballad of Reading Gaol

Maxim Gorky
“Happiness always looks small while you hold it in your hands, but let it go, and you learn at once how big and precious it is.”
Maxim Gorky, The Lower Depths and Other Plays

Carl R. Rogers
“The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction not a destination.”
Carl R. Rogers

Mika Waltari
“Ανττί, του είπα αυστηρά, βαρέθηκα τα σοφά λόγια. Κουράστηκα να παίζω με τις λέξεις. Το θεό μπορούμε να τον βρούμε μόνο στις καρδιές των ανθρώπων. Κανένας δεν έχει τη δύναμη να σώσει τον οποιονδήποτε, ερμηνεύοντας τα κείμενα - είτε είναι γραμμένα στα Λατινικά είτε στα Αραβικά ή στα Εβραϊκά.”
Mika Waltari
