“Watch them clamber, these swift monkeys! They clamber over one another and thus drag one another into the mud and the depth. They all want to get to the throne: that is their madness — as if happiness sat on the throne. Often, mud sits on the throne — and often the throne also on mud. Mad they all appear to me, clambering monkeys and overardent. Foul smells their idol, the cold monster: foul, they smell to me altogether, these idolators. ”
― Friedrich Nietzsche

“A book must be the axe for the frozen sea within us.”
― Franz Kafka

“A room without books is like a body without a soul.”

“Science is not only compatible with spirituality; it is a profound source of spirituality.”
