Machado de Assis
“Eu sei que vossa excelência preferia uma delicada mentira; mas eu não conheço nada mais delicado que a verdade.”
― Machado de Assis, Contos Fluminenses

― Victor Hugo, Les Misérables

Albert Camus
“When I was young, I expected from people more than they could give: neverending friendship and constant excitement.

Now I expect less than they can actually can give: to stay close silently. And their feelings, friendship, noble deeds always seem like a miracle to me: a true grace.”
― Albert Camus, Notebooks 1935-1942

William  James
“We are like islands in the sea, separate on the surface but connected in the deep.”
― William James

Paul  Hoffman
“To be sociable is a risky thing—even fatal—because it means being in contact with people, most of whom are dull, perverse and ignorant and are really with you only because they cannot bear their own company. Most people bore themselves and greet you not as a true friend but as a distraction—like a dancing dog or some half-wit actor
with a fund of amusing stories.”
― Paul Hoffman, The Left Hand of God
