“Education, in order to keep up the mighty delusion, encourages a species of ignorance. People are not taught to be really virtuous, but to behave properly. We are wicked because we are frightfully self-conscious. We nurse a conscience because we are afraid to tell the truth to others; we take refuge in pride because we are afraid to tell the truth to ourselves. How can one be serious with the world when the world itself is so ridiculous!” -
“Anybody can become angry - that is easy, but to be angry with the right person and to the right degree and at the right time and for the right purpose, and in the right way - that is not within everybody’s power and is not easy.” — Aristotle (via allthingsgreece) -
“It is funny how you do not miss affection until it is given, but once it is, it can never be enough; you would drown in it if possible.” — Libba Bray, The Sweet Far Thing (via larmoyante) -
“You have to decide who you are and force the world to deal with you, not with its idea of you.” — James Baldwin (via ladyvenoms) -
