 And could I look upon her without compassion, seeing her punishment in the ruin she was, in her profound unfitness for this earth on which she was placed, in the vanity of sorrow which had become a master mania, like the vanity of penitence, the vanity of remorse, the vanity of unworthiness, and other monstrous vanities that have been curses in this world?
  Charles Dickens

  Ludwig Wittgenstein

 What is the vanity of the vainest man compared with the vanity which the most modest possesses when, in the midst of nature and the world, he feels himself to be ''man''!
  Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

 My personal belief is there has to be a master designer who has placed life on Earth, ... The question is, do we require that to be taught as part of the curriculum in science class? That's a tough question.

  François de la Rochefoucauld

  Henri Bergson

  Henri Bergson
