The more you put in your brain, the more it will hold -- if you have one. Rex Stout
What is more melancholy and more profound than to see a thousand objects for the first and the last time? To travel is to be born and to die at every instant. Victor Hugo
Funnily enough, “self-criticism” is an idea much in vogue in Marxist countries, but there it is subordinated to ideological considerations and must serve the State, and not truth and justice in men’s dealing with one another. The mass State has no intention of promoting mutual understanding and the relationship of man to man; it strives, rather, for atomization, for the psychic isolation of the individual. The more unrelated individuals are, the more consolidated the State becomes, and vice... Carl Jung
It is by desiring to grow in love that we receive the Holy Spirit, and the thirst for more charity is the effect of this more abundant reception. Thomas Merton
