Ludwig Wittgenstein
“Language is a labyrinth of paths. You approach from one side and know your way about; you approach the same place from another side and no longer know your way about.”
Ludwig Wittgenstein, Philosophical Investigations

John Berger
“History always constitutes the relation between a present and its past. Consequently fear of the present leads to mystification of the past”
John Berger, Ways of Seeing

J.R.R. Tolkien
“Even the smallest person can change the course of the future”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

Burton Raffel
“I’ve never known fear; as a youth I fought/ In endless battles. I am old, now,/ But I will fight again, seek fame still,/ If the dragon hiding in his tower dares/ To face me”
Burton Raffel, Beowulf

Percy Bysshe Shelley
“A Poet is a nightingale who sits in darkness, and sings to cheer its own solitude with sweet sounds; his auditors are as men entranced by the melody of an unseen musician, who feel that they are moved and softened, yet know not whence or why.”
Percy Bysshe Shelley, A Defence of Poetry and Other Essays
