1923·New York City, USA
But let there be spaces in your togetherness, and let the winds of the heavens dance between you. Love one another but make not a bond of love.
The creator gives no heed to the critic unless he becomes a barren inventor.
My enemy said to me, "Love your enemy." And I obeyed him and loved myself.
Aristotle·350 BCParents love their children as themselves; for their issue are by virtue of their separate existence a sort of other selves.
Ralph Waldo Emerson·1870A man contains all that is needful to his government within himself. He is made a law unto himself. All real good or evil that can befal [sic] him must be from himself. He only can do himself any good or any harm. Nothing can be given to him or can taken from him but always there is a compensation.. There is a correspondence between the human soul and everything that exists in the world; more properly, everything that is known to man. Instead of studying things without the principles of them, all may be penetrated unto with him. Every act puts the agent in a new position. The purpose of life seems to be to acquaint a man with himself. He is not to live the future as described to him but to live the real future to the real present. The highest revelation is that God is in every man.
William Shakespeare·1599Men at some time are masters of their fates:The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars,But in ourselves, that we are underlings.
