Eric Hoffer
However much we talk of the inexorable laws governing the life of individuals and of societies, we remain at the bottom convinced that in human affairs everything in more or less fortuitous. We do not even believe in the inevitability of our own death. Hence the difficulty of deciphering the present, of detecting the seeds of things to come as they germinate before our eyes. We are not attuned to seeing the inevitable.

Johann von Goethe
Art is long, life short judgment difficult, opportunity transient.

Lord Acton
It is bad to be oppressed by a minority, but it is worse to be oppressed by a majority. For there is a reserve of latent power in the masses which, if it is called into play, the minority can seldom resist. But from the absolute will of an entire people there is no appeal, no redemption, no refuge but treason.
= = = = = = = = = =
Alphonse Marie Louis de Lamartine
Grief knits two hearts in closer bonds than happiness ever can and common sufferings are far stronger links than common joys.
