David Hume

Thomas Paine
“Women need real moments of solitude and self-reflection to balance out how much of ourselves we give away.”
Barbara De Angelis
“I am an excitable person who only understands life lyrically, musically, in whom feelings are much stronger as reason. I am so thirsty for the marvelous that only the marvelous has power over me. Anything I can not transform into something marvelous, I let go. Reality doesn't impress me. I only believe in intoxication, in ecstasy, and when ordinary life shackles me, I escape, one way or another. No more walls.”
Anais Nin
“How strange is the lot of us mortals! Each of us is here for a brief sojourn; for what purpose he knows not, though he senses it. But without deeper reflection one knows from daily life that one exists for other people.”
Albert Einstein
“Who could be so lucky? Who comes to a lake for water and sees the reflection of moon.”
Jalal ad-Din Rumi
