“We are all fools in love.” - Jane Austen “Vanity and pride are different things, though the words are often used synonymously. A person may be proud without being vain. Pride relates more to our opinion of ourselves, vanity to what we would have others think of us.” - Jane Austen
“In my life I have found two things of priceless worth - learning and loving. Nothing else - not fame, not power, not achievement for its own sake - can possible have the same lasting value. For when your life is over, if you can say 'I have learned' and 'I have loved,' you will also be able to say 'I have been happy.'” - Arthur Clarke “My favorite definition of an intellectual: "Someone who has been educated beyond his/her intelligence."” - Arthur Clarke “I'm sure the universe is full of intelligent life. It's just been too intelligent to come here.” - Arthur Clarke “The universe is not only stranger than we imagine, it's stranger than we can imagine.” - Arthur Clarke “Any path to knowledge is a path to God - or Reality, whichever word one prefers to use.” - Arthur Clarke
“Understanding does not cure evil, but it is a definite help, in as much as one can cope with a comprehensible darkness.” - Carl Jung “We cannot change anything until we accept it. Condemnation does not liberate, it oppresses.” - Carl Jung “Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.” - Carl Jung “The pendulum of the mind alternates between sense and nonsense, not between right and wrong.” - Carl Jung “The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances. If there is any reaction, both are transformed.” - Carl Jung
“Forgiving men is so much easier than forgiving women.” - Margaret Atwood “Longed for him. Got him. Shit.” - Margaret Atwood
“If you want to know what a man's like, take a good look at how he treats his inferiors, not his equals.” - Jk Rowling
