René Descartes
“The reading of all good books is like conversation with the finest men of past centuries.”
René Descartes

Ludwig Wittgenstein
“Whereof one cannot speak, thereof one must be silent.”
Ludwig Wittgenstein, Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus

Thomas de Quincey
“But my way of writing is rather to think aloud, and follow my own humours, than much to consider who is listening to me; and, if I stop to consider what is proper to be said to this or that person, I shall soon come to doubt whether any part at all is proper.”
Thomas De Quincey, Confessions of an English Opium Eater

Barbara Kingsolver
“Silence has many advantages. When you do not speak, other people presume you to be deaf or feeble-minded and promptly make a show of their own limitations.”
Barbara Kingsolver, The Poisonwood Bible

Oscar Wilde
“To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.”
Oscar Wilde
