Eleanor Brown
“she wondered how she could have spent all that money and have nothing but clothes and accessories and a long list of men she never wanted to see again to show for it”
Eleanor Brown, The Weird Sisters

Aesop
“There are many statues of men slaying lions, but if only the lions were sculptors there might be quite a different set of statues.”
Aesop

Robert Greene
“Her seductive power, however, did not lie in her looks [...]. In reality, Cleopatra was physically unexceptional and had no political power, yet both Caesar and Antony, brave and clever men, saw none of this. What they saw was a woman who constantly transformed herself before their eyes, a one-woman spectacle.

Her dress and makeup changed from day to day, but always gave her a heightened, goddesslike appearance. Her words could be banal enough, but were spoken so sweetly that listeners would find themselves remembering not what she said but how she said it.”
Robert Greene, The Art of Seduction

Robert Greene
“Never be distracted by people’s glamorous portraits of themselves and their lives; search and dig for what really imprisons them.”
Robert Greene, The 48 Laws of Power

Robert Greene
“Do not fight them. Instead think of them the way you think of children, or pets, not important enough to affect your mental balance”
Robert Greene, The 33 Strategies of War
