Gustave Flaubert
“Do not read as children do to enjoy themselves, or, as the ambitious do to educate themselves. No, read to live.”
Gustave Flaubert

Umberto Eco
“National identity is the last bastion of the dispossessed. But the meaning of identity is now based on hatred, on hatred for those who are not the same.”
Umberto Eco, The Prague Cemetery

François de La Rochefoucauld
“On n'est jamais si heureux ni si malheureux qu'on s'imagine.”
François La Rochefoucauld, Réflexions ou sentences et maximes morales

Virginia Woolf
“A woman's writing is always feminine; it cannot help being feminine; at its best it is most feminine; the only difficulty lies in defining what we mean by feminine.”
Virginia Woolf

Gustave Flaubert
“Just when the gods had ceased to be, and the Christ had not yet come, there was a unique moment in history, between Cicero and Marcus Aurelius, when man stood alone.”
Gustave Flaubert, The Letters, 1830-1880
