The purpose of a liberal education is to make you philosophical enough to accept the fact that you will never make much money.

Charles KingsleyWe act as though comfort and luxury were the chief requirements of life, when all that we need to make us really happy is something to be enthusiastic about
“Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all out, just as they are, chaff and grain together, certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and with a breath of kindness blow the rest away.”
Alexander SolzhenitsynIt is not because the truth is too difficult to see that we make mistakes... we make mistakes because the easiest and most comfortable course for us is to seek insight where it accords with our emotions - especially selfish ones.”
― Philip K. DickThe true measure of a man is not his intelligence or how high he rises in this freak establishment. No, the true measure of a man is this: how quickly can he respond to the needs of others and how much of himself he can give.
