Rainer Maria Rilke
“Perhaps everything terrible is in its deepest being something helpless that wants help from us.”
Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters To A Young Poet

Ivan Illich
“Beyond a certain speed, motorized vehicles create remoteness which they alone can shrink. They create distances for all and shrink them for only a few. A new dirt road through the wilderness brings the city within view, but not within reach, of most Brazilian subsistence farmers. The new expressway expands Chicago, but it sucks those who are well-wheeled away from a downtown that decays into a ghetto.”
Ivan Illich, Energy and Equity

Marcus Aurelius
“Receive without conceit, release without struggle.”
Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

Oscar Wilde
“Love is a sacrament that should be taken kneeling, and Domine non sum dignus should be on the lips and in the hearts of those who receive it.”
Oscar Wilde, De Profundis

Thomas Wolfe
“I have to see a thing a thousand times before I see it once.”
Thomas Wolfe, You Can't Go Home Again
