Daniel Keyes
“People resent being shown that they don't approach the complexities of the problem - they don't know what exists beyond the surface ripples.”
Daniel Keyes, Flowers for Algernon

Epictetus
“Don't explain your philosophy. Embody it.”
Epictetus

Jeanette Winterson
“She had made him possible. In that sense she was his god. Like God, she was neglected.”
Jeanette Winterson, The Passion

Gustave Flaubert

Gustav Flaubert, Frau Bovary

Gustave Flaubert
“Never touch your idols: the gilding will stick to your fingers."

(Il ne faut pas toucher aux idoles: la dorure en reste aux mains.)
Gustave Flaubert, Madame Bovary
