William Shakespeare
“No one likes having offended another person; hence everyone feels so much better if the other person doesn't show he's been offended. Nobody likes being confronted by a wounded spaniel. Remember that. It is much easier patiently -- and tolerantly -- to avoid the person you have injured than to approach him as a friend. You need courage for that.”
Ludwig Wittgenstein
“Hence it comes about that all armed prophets have been victorious, and all unarmed prophets have been destroyed.”
Niccolo Machiavelli
“Hence that general is skilful in attack whose opponent does not know what to defend; and he is skilful in defense whose opponent does not know what to attack.”
Sun Tzu
“Any translation which intends to perform a transmitting function cannot transmit anything but information -- hence, something inessential. This is the hallmark of bad translations.”
Walter Benjamin
“The very essence of the creative is its novelty, and hence we have no standard by which to judge it.”
Carl Rogers
