The praise that comes from love does not make us vain, but more humble.

James Barrie

If your failure is not a lesson, it's indeed a failure.

Ambrose Bierce

Soren Kierkegaard

In the tumult of men and events, solitude was my temptation; now it is my friend. What other satisfaction can be sought once you have confronted History?
