It is amazing how complete is the delusion that beauty is goodness.


Leo Tolstoy

What disturbs and depresses young people is the hunt for happiness on the firm assumption that it must be met with in life. From this arises constantly deluded hope and so also dissatisfaction. Deceptive images of a vague happiness hover before us in our dreams, and we search in vain for their original. Much would have been gained if, through timely advice and instruction, young people could have had eradicated from their minds the erroneous notion that the world has a great deal to offer them.


Arthur Schopenhauer

In many ways, life is about managing your delusions; keeping the ones that nourish and eliminating the ones that poison.

J. E. Littlewood, a mathematician at Cambridge University, wrote about the law of truly large numbers in his 1986 book, "Littlewood's Miscellany." He said the average person is alert for about eight hours every day, and something happens to the average person about once a second. At this rate, you will experience 1 million events every thirty-five days. This means when you say the chances of something happening are one in a million, it also means about once a month. The monthly miracle is called Littlewood's Law.


David McRaney

It is a common delusion that you make things better by talking about them.


Rose Macaulay

Niente è facile. Non lo è mai. Se così non fosse sarebbe tutto più semplice: niente dolore, niente delusione, niente solitudine. No, nulla di tutto questo è possibile, perché niente di ciò che realmente conta può essere facile. La gioia nasce dal sacrificio, dalle ginocchia sbucciate, dai cuori infranti. Perché ciò che ci è stato inculcato da bambini non può essere vero: non ci sono favole, non ci sono eroi o grandi imprese, c'è la determinazione di persone semplici che non si arrendono mai!


Fabio Volo

The trouble with giving yourself a pep talk is, that deep down you know it's all bullshit.


Sophie Kinsella

The human brain is a complex organ with the wonderful power of enabling man to find reasons for continuing to believe whatever it is that he wants to believe.


Voltaire

الخجل ينبع من توهمك لأهمية مبالغ فيها لنفسك...أنت لست مهماً كما تعتقد..لست مهماً على الإطلاق و ليس هناك شخص متفرغ لمراقبة خلجاتك و أخطاءك..لو أنك أخرجت كسرولة ووضعتها على رأسك فلن يهتم أحد أكثر من ثلاثة دقائق
