A dream! What is a dream? And is not our life a dream? I will say more. Suppose that this paradise will never come to pass (that I understand), yet I shall go on preaching it. And yet how simple it is: in one day, in one hour everything could be arranged at once! The chief thing is to love others like yourself, that's the chief thing, and that's everything; nothing else is wanted - you will find out at once how to arrange it all. And yet it's an old truth which has been told and retold a billion times - but it has not formed part of our lives! The consciousness of life is higher than life, the knowledge of the laws of happiness is higher than happiness - that is what one must contend against. And I shall. If only everyone wants it, it can be arranged at once.
- quote by Fyodor Dostoevsky
A fair, where thousands meet, but none can stay; An inn, where travellers bait, then post away.
- quote by Soame Jenkyns
A few years hence and he will be beneath the sod; but those cliffs will stand, as now, facing the ocean, incessantly lashed by its waves, yet unshaken, immovable; and other eyes will gaze on them for their brief day of life, and then they, too, will close.
- quote by Henry Liddon
A free man thinks of death least of all things; and his wisdom is a meditation not of death but of life.
- quote by Baruch Spinoza
A free man thinks of nothing less than of death; and his wisdom is a meditation not on death but on life.
- quote by Baruch Spinoza
A good man doubles the length of his existence; to have lived so as to look back with pleasure on our past existence is to live twice.
- quote by Martial
A little rule, a little sway, A sunbeam in a winter's day, Is all the proud and mighty have Between the cradle and the grave.
- quote by John Dyer
A man's best things are nearest him, Lie close about his feet.
- quote by Richard Monckton Milnes
A man's ingress into the world is naked and bare, His progress through the world is trouble and care; And lastly, his egress out of the world, is nobody knows where. If we do well here, we shall do well there; I can tell you no more if I preach a whole year.
- quote by John Edwin
- quote by Omar Khayyam
