Friedrich Nietzsche
“Companions the creator seeks, not corpses, not herds and believers. Fellow creators the creator seeks -- those who write new values on new tablets. Companions the creator seeks, and fellow harvesters; for everything about him is ripe for the harvest.”
Friedrich Nietzsche

Herman Melville
“Give not thyself up, then, to fire, lest it invert thee, deaden thee, as for the time it did me. There is a wisdom that is woe; but there is a woe that is madness.”
Herman Melville, Moby-Dick or, The Whale

Hope Mirrlees
“Why is Melancholy like Honey? Because it is very sweet, and it is culled from Flowers.”
Hope Mirrlees, Lud-in-the-Mist

Leo Tolstoy
“Pierre's insanity consisted in the face that he did not wait, as before, for personal reasons, which he called people's merits, in order to love them, but love overflowed his heart, and loving people without reason, he discovered the unquestionable reasons for which it was worth loving them.”
Leo Tolstoy, War and Peace

Hope Mirrlees
“Was it possible that Ranulph, too, was a real person, a person inside whose mind things happened? He had thought that he himself was the only real person in a field of human flowers. For Master Nathaniel that was a moment of surprise, triumph, tenderness, alarm.”
Hope Mirrlees, Lud-in-the-Mist
