Albert Camus
“To lose one's life is no great matter; when the time comes I'll have the courage to lose mine. But what's intolerable is to see one's life being drained of meaning, to be told there's no reason for existing. A man can't live without some reason for living.”
Albert Camus, Caligula

William Shakespeare
“There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.”
William Shakespear, Hamlet

Fyodor Dostoevsky
“We sometimes encounter people, even perfect strangers, who begin to interest us at first sight, somehow suddenly, all at once, before a word has been spoken.”
Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Crime and Punishment

Hugh of Saint-Victor
“Learn everything. Later you will see that nothing is superfluous.”
Hugh of Saint-Victor

Jean-Paul Sartre
“One always dies too soon — or too late. And yet one’s whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are — your life, and nothing else.”
Jean-Paul Sartre
