Maxim Gorky
“The illness of a doctor is always worse than the illnesses of his patients.The patients only feel, but the doctor, as well as feeling, has a pretty good idea of the destructive effect of the disease on his constitution.This is a case in which knowledge brings death nearer.”
Maxim Gorky, Literary Portraits

Christopher Hitchens
“To terrify children with the image of hell, to consider women an inferior creation—is that good for the world?”
Christopher Hitchens

Rudolf Rocker
“For the anarchist, freedom is not an abstract philosophical concept, but the vital concrete possibility of every human being to bring to full development all the powers, capacities and talents with which nature has endowed them, and turn them to social account.”
Rudolf Rocker

Jean-Paul Sartre
“I think of death only with tranquility, as an end. I refuse to let death hamper life. Death must enter life only to define it.”
Jean-Paul Sartre, No Exit

Paulo Coelho
“I think that, with age, people come to realize that death is inevitable. And we need to learn to face it with serenity, wisdom and resignation. Death often frees us from a lot of senseless sufferings.”
Paulo Coelho, The Devil and Miss Prym
