“They're expensive. Fire is cheaper."
"The Hazas don't seem like people wo care much about price."
"They care," he said "if *people* get expensive. Then the people go. I try very hard not to be expensive. I don't want to go.”
Robert Jackson Bennett, The Tainted Cup

Vladimir Sergeyevich Solovyov
“Failure to recognize one's own absolute significance is equivalent to a denial of human worth; this is a basic error and the origin of all unbelief. If one is so faint-hearted that he is powerless even to believe in himself, how can he believe in anything else? The basic falsehood and evil of egoism lie not in this absolute self-consciousness and self-evaluation of the subject, but in the fact that, ascribing to himself in all justice an absolute significance, he unjustly refuses to others this same significance. Recognizing himself as a centre of life (which as a matter of fact he is), he relegates others to the circumference of his own being and leaves them only an external and relative value.”
Vladimir Solovyov, The Meaning of Love
