"Never have I felt as strongly as today that I was devoid of secret dimensions, limited to my body, to the airy thoughts which float up from it like bubbles. I build my memories with my present. I am rejected, abandoned in the present. I try in vain to rejoin the past: I cannot escape from myself." - Jean-Paul Sartre (Nausea)

"Besides, though Nietzsche was a seer in many domains, he was no guide to interpersonal relationships - has there ever lived a lonelier, more isolated man?" - Irvin Yalom (Love's Executioner)

"Fie brother, fie! Teach her not thus to lay such violent hands upon her tender life." - William Shakespeare (Titus Andronicus, 1594).

"He who cannot lie does not know what truth is." - Friedrich Nietzsche (Thus Spoke Zarathustra).

"I have desired and gazed into the distance too long. I have belonged to solitude too long: I have forgotten how to be silent." - Friedrich Nietzsche (Thus Spoke Zarathustra).
