    “When it looks at great accomplishments, the world, bent on simplifying its images, likes best to look at the dramatic, picturesque moments experienced by its heroes.... But the no less creative years of preparation remain in the shadow.”
    —Stefan Zweig (18811942)

    “Several classical sayings that one likes to repeat had quite a different meaning from the ones later times attributed to them.”
    —Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    “From infancy, a growing girl creates a tapestry of ever-deepening and ever- enlarging relationships, with her self at the center. . . . The feminine personality comes to define itself within relationship and connection, where growth includes greater and greater complexities of interaction.”
    —Jeanne Elium (20th century)

    “Nothing is capable of being well set to music that is not nonsense.”
    —Joseph Addison (1672–1719)

    “Earthly minds, like mud walls, resist the strongest batteries: and though, perhaps, sometimes the force of a clear argument may make some impression, yet they nevertheless stand firm, and keep out the enemy, truth, that would captivate or disturb them. Tell a man passionately in love, that he is jilted; bring a score of witnesses of the falsehood of his mistress, it is ten to one but three kind words of hers shall invalidate all their testimonies.”
    —John Locke (1632–1704)
