"When we are dead, seek not our tomb in the earth, but find it in the hearts of men." Jalaludin Rumi.
"Judge your success by what you had to give up in order to get it." Dalai Lama.
"Man is a villain. And whoever calls him a villain because of it is one himself!" Fyodor Dostoyevsky Crime and Punishment.
"All that exists is just and unjust and equally justified in both…Your world, this! So that’s a world!" Friedrich Nietzsche The Birth of Tragedy.
"Oh, it’s true that there’s a ferment of ideas and a desire for good, though it’s a childish one." Dostoyevsky Crime and Punishment. Again.
From the Michael Allen novel A Danger to Society
The one thing about having faith in something is believing in it so much it would literally crush you if you found out otherwise.
I don’t care what you think. I just care that you think.
Sometimes I believe we retard our own growth when we think ourselves around in circles.
I don’t procrastinate. I allow ideas to ferment.
I don’t have all the answers. But, don’t try convincing me of that.
In the measurement of things, there is a great irony often overlooked. It’s a childish desire, the childish desire for good. (Notice the connection to Dostoyevsky.)
