Väcker en författare kritikernas, mediernas och läsarnas speciella intresse, så störtar de sig alla över vederbörande som fågelsvärmar över ett litet träd som just spruckit ut med gröna blad, och när svärmen efter en tid lyfter igen är trädet naket. Kalätet. Intet kvar.

Thomas Bernhard (1931-1989)

Thomas Bernhard

Arbeidsdeling må skje etter dyktighet og skikkethet, ikke etter kjønn. Viser en kvinne at hun kan styre et samfunn, så la henne gjøre det. Viser en mann at han bare duger til å vaske tallerkener, så la ham da gjøre det arbeid som naturen har bestemt ham til.

Arbetsfördelningen måste ske efter kunskap och skicklighet, inte efter kön. Visar en kvinna att hon kan styra ett samhälle, så låt henne göra det. Visar en man att han bara duger till att diska tallrikar, så låt honom då göra det arbete som naturen har bestämt för hans del.

Platon (427 f.Kr.-348 f.Kr.)

Platon

From the point of view of the pharmaceutical industry, the AIDS problem has already been solved. After all, we already have a drug which can be sold at the incredible price of $8, 000 an annual dose, and which has the added virtue of not diminishing the market by actually curing anyone.

Barbara Ehrenreich (1941-)

Barbara Ehrenreich

Any perception can connect us to reality properly and fully. What we see doesn't have to be pretty, particularly; we can appreciate anything that exists. There is some principle of magic in everything, some living quality. Something living, something real, is taking place in everything.

Chogyam Trungpa

We should cease to talk about vague and unreal objectives such as human rights, the raising of the living standards, and democratization. The day is not far off when we are going to have to deal in straight power concepts. The less we are then hampered by idealistic slogans, the better.

George F. Kennan

What culture lacks is the taste for anonymous, innumerable germination. Culture is smitten with counting and measuring; it feels out of place and uncomfortable with the innumerable; its efforts tend, on the contrary, to limit the numbers in all domains; it tries to count on its fingers.

Jean Dubuffet (1901-1985)

Jean Dubuffet

We stand today poised on a pinnacle of wealth and power, yet we live in a land of vanishing beauty, of increasing ugliness, of shrinking open space and of an overall environment that is diminished daily by pollution and noise and blight. This, in brief, is the quiet conservation crisis.

Stewart L. Udall

To the eyes of a god, mankind must appear as a species of bacteria which multiply and become progressively virulent whenever they find themselves in a congenial culture, and whose activity diminishes until they disappear completely as soon as proper measures are taken to sterilize them.

Aleister Crowley (1875-)

Aleister Crowley

Man is mortal. Everyone has to die some day or the other. But one must resolve to lay down one's life in enriching the noble ideals of self-respect and in bettering one's human life. We are not slaves. Nothing is more disgraceful for a brave man than to live life devoid of self-respect.

''I'' is a militant social tendency, working to hold and enlarge its place in the general current of tendencies. So far as it can it waxes, as all life does. To think of it as apart from society is a palpable absurdity of which no one could be guilty who really saw it as a fact of life.

Charles Horton Cooley

I believe that the very purpose of our life is to seek happiness. That is clear. Whether one believes in religion or not, whether one believes in this religion or that religion, we all are seeking something better in life. So, I think, the very motion of our life is towards happiness…

Dalai Lama (1935-)

Dalai Lama

For many, negative thinking is a habit, which over time, becomes an addiction... A lot of people suffer from this disease because negative thinking is addictive to each of the Big Three -- the mind, the body, and the emotions. If one doesn't get you, the others are waiting in the wings.

Peter McWilliams (1949-)

It is against stupidity in every shape and form that we have to wage our eternal battle. But how can we wonder at the want of sense on the part of those who have had no advantages, when we see such plentiful absence of that commodity on the part of those who have had all the advantages?

William Booth (1829-1916)

William Booth

Next to the right of liberty, the right of property is the most important individual right guaranteed by the Constitution and the one which, united with that of personal liberty, has contributed more to the growth of civilization than any other institution established by the human race.

William Howard Taft (1857-1930)

William Howard Taft

I believe that the very purpose of our life is to seek happiness. That is clear. Whether one believes in religion or not, whether one believes in this religion or that religion, we all are seeking something better in life. So, I think, the very motion of our life is towards happiness…
