If the schemes of gezegde

en If the schemes of Utopians could be realized, the tone of society would be changed from what it is, into a sort of insipid high life. There could be no fine tragedies written; nor would there be any pleasure in seeing them. We tend to this conclusion already with the progress of civilization.
  William Hazlitt

en Chastity is the cement of civilization and progress. Without it there is no stability in society, and without it one cannot attain the Science of Life.

en You, and those like you, take your fill of pleasure on earth by making the life of such as me bitter and black with sorrow; and then it is a fine thing, when you have had enough of that, to think of securing your pleasure in heaven by becoming converted!
  Thomas Hardy

en "What sets worlds in motion is the interplay of differences, their attractions and repulsions.

Life is plurality, death is uniformity.

By suppressing differences and pecularities, by eliminating different civilizations and cultures, progress weakens life and favors death.

The ideal of a single civilization for everyone, implicit in the cult of progress and technique, impoverishes and mutilates us.

Every view of the world that becomes extinct, every culture that disappears, diminishes a possibility of life"

  Octavio Paz

en Pleasure that isn't paid for is as insipid as everything else that's free.

  William Jennings Bryan

en Most vices demand considerable self-sacrifices. There is no greater mistake than to suppose that a vicious life is a life of uninterrupted pleasure. It is a life almost as wearisome and painful -- if strenuously led -- as Christian's in The Pilgrim's Progress.
  Aldous Huxley

en I had quite a repressed childhood. I was born in '55 and by the mid '60s it was still very much a sort of '50s mentality there, being so remote. I just found it stifling. And at some point - I think I was about 12 - I came to the conclusion that it was going to be difficult to survive that little society somehow intact.

en Our trip to Washington reminded us that there is an idea of justice that we believe is worth fighting for.
