Albert Camus
“Man is the only creature who refuses to be what he is.”
Albert Camus

W.B. Yeats
The Lake Isle of Innisfree

I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,
And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made;
Nine bean-rows will I have there, a hive for the honey-bee,
And live alone in the bee-loud glade.

And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow,
Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings;
There midnight’s all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow,
And evening full of the linnet’s wings.

I will arise and go now, for always night and day
I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore;
While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements grey,
I hear it in the deep heart’s core.”
William Butler Yeats, The Collected Poems of W.B. Yeats

W.B. Yeats
“Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.”
William Butler Yeats

Albert Camus
“Don’t walk in front of me… I may not follow
Don’t walk behind me… I may not lead
Walk beside me… just be my friend”
Albert Camus

Stephen Fry
“An original idea. That can't be too hard. The library must be full of them.”
Stephen Fry
