Jerome K. Jerome
“It is impossible to enjoy idling thoroughly unless one has plenty of work to do. There is no fun in doing nothing when you have nothing to do. Wasting time is merely an occupation then, and a most exhausting one. Idleness, like kisses, to be sweet must be stolen.”
Jerome K. Jerome

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
“A great writer is, so to speak, a second government in his country. And for that reason no regime has ever loved great writers, only minor ones.”
Alexander Solzhenitsyn

Socrates
“By all means marry; if you get a good wife, you’ll become happy; if you get a bad one, you’ll become a philosopher.”
Socrates

“Technology is dominated by two types of people: those who understand what they do not manage and those who manage what they do not understand.”
Archibald Putt

Leo Tolstoy
“In the name of God, stop a moment, cease your work, look around you.”
Leo Tolstoy
