Our vanity is the constant enemy of our dignity.


Sophie Swetchine

All this long human story, most passionate and tragic in the living, was but an unimportant, a seemingly barren and negligible effort, lasting only for a few moments in the life of the galaxy. When it was over, the host of the planetary systems still lived on, with here and there a casualty, and here and there among the stars a new planetary birth, and here and there a fresh disaster.


Olaf Stapledon

Жената осъзна, че грехът на Ева не е бил в изяждането на ябълката. Грехът й е бил, че сама се е поддала на властта на мъжа, обръщайки се по гръб. Мъжът до този момент я любел така, както виждал, че го правят овните, петлите и кучетата му. Но един ден жената се извъртяла, та му показала незащитения си корем, в който създавала живота. Като оставила съдбата си и съдбата на неродените от утробата й деца на волята на мъжа, жената престанала да му бъде равна. И сторила този грях само и само да му види очите. Защото го обичала! И той да й види очите. Защото била суетна...


Radostina A. Angelova

Charles Dickens
