—Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)

“It must be admitted that there are some parts of the soul which we must entirely paralyse before we can live happily in this world.”
—Sébastien-Roch Nicolas De Chamfort (1741–1794)

“To be admitted to Nature’s hearth costs nothing. None is excluded, but excludes himself. You have only to push aside the curtain.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
