Theodor W. Adorno
“Thought as such… is an act of negation, of resistance to that which is forced upon it; this is what thought has inherited from its archetype, the relation between labor and material. Today, when ideologues tend more than ever to encourage thought to be positive, they cleverly note that positivity runs precisely counter to thought, and that it takes friendly persuasion by social authority to accustom thought to positivity.”
Theodor W. Adorno, Negative Dialectics

Michel de Montaigne
“Don't discuss yourself, for you are bound to lose; if you belittle yourself, you are believed; if you praise yourself, you are disbelieved.”
Michel de Montaigne

Fernando Pessoa
“I've never done anything but dream. This, and this alone, has been the meaning of my life. My only real concern has been my inner life.”
Fernando Pessoa, The Book of Disquiet

Ovid
“Love will enter cloaked in friendship's name.”
Ovid

Ovid
“Every lover is a soldier.”
Ovid, Amores
