William Golding
“I think women are foolish to pretend they are equal to men. They are far superior and always have been. Whatever you give a woman, she will make greater. If you give her sperm, she will give you a baby. If you give her a house, she will give you a home. If you give her groceries, she will give you a meal. If you give her a smile, she will give you her heart. She multiples and enlarges whatever is given to her. So if you give her any crap, be ready to receive a ton of shit!”
William Golding

Will Durant
“The fear of death is strangely mingled with the longing for repose.”
Will Durant, Fallen Leaves: Last Words on Life, Love, War, and God

Thomas Sowell
“Piketty’s crucial misstep is verbally converting a fluid process over time into a rigid structure, with a more or less permanent top one percent living isolated from the rest of society that is supposedly subjected to their control or influence. It is a vision divorced from demonstrable facts, however consonant it may be with prevailing preconceptions.”
Thomas Sowell, Wealth, Poverty and Politics: An International Perspective

Will Durant
“The tragedy of life is that it gives us wisdom only when it has stolen youth. Si jeunesse savait, et vieillesse pouvait!—“If youth knew how, and old age could!”
Will Durant, Fallen Leaves: Last Words on Life, Love, War, and God

Will Durant
“They will learn and grow and love and struggle and create, and lift life up one little notch, perhaps, before they die. And when they pass they will cheat death with their children, with parental care that will make their children a little finer than themselves. Life wins.”
Will Durant, Fallen Leaves: Last Words on Life, Love, War, and God
