    “Great people talk about ideas, average people talk about things, and small people talk about wine.”

    “The unlucky hand dealt to clear and precise writers is that people assume they are superficial and so do not go to any trouble in reading them: and the lucky hand dealt to unclear ones is that the reader does go to some trouble and then attributes the pleasure he experiences in his own zeal to them.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “I’d wish the government took honest people into consideration, it shows enough consideration for scoundrels.”
    —Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
