Michel de Montaigne
“A noble heart should not belie its thoughts; it wants to reveal itself even to its inmost depths. There everything is good, at least everything is human.”
Michel de Montaigne

Arthur Schopenhauer
“Sometimes we credit ourselves with a longing to be in some distant spot, whereas, in truth, we are only longing to have the time back again which we spent there---days when we were younger and fresher than we are now.”
Arthur Schopenhauer

Marcel Proust
“The intellectual distinction of a house and its smartness are generally in inverse rather than direct ratio.”
Marcel Proust

Arthur Schopenhauer
“Men need some kind of external activity, because they are inactive within.”
Arthur Schopenhauer

Charles Dickens
“Hot punch is a pleasant thing, gentlemen---an extremely pleasant thing under any circumstances---but in that snug old parlour, before the roaring fire, with the wind blowing outside till every timber in the old house creaked again, Tom Smart found it perfectly delightful.”
Charles Dickens
