Robert Louis Stevenson
It is better to be a fool than to be dead. It is better to emit a scream in the shape of a theory than to be entirely insensible to the jars and incongruities of life and take everything as it comes in a forlorn stupidity. Some people swallow the universe like a pill; they travel on through the world, like smiling images pushed from behind. For God’s sake give me the young man who has brains enough to make a fool of himself!
~ Robert Louis Stevenson ~
Voltaire
„Nur wer in allem Maß hält und sich Bewegung macht, fühlt sich wohl, und die Kunst, ausschweifend zu leben und dabei gesund zu bleiben, existiert ebenso wenig wie der Stein der Weisen, die Sterndeuterei und die Theologie der Magier.“
– Voltaire, Zadig oder Das Schicksal, Kap. 18
Friedrich Schiller
He who has done his best for his own time has lived for all times.

When the Saints Go Marching In
Some say this world of trouble
Is the only one we need
But I’m waiting for that morning
When the new world is revealed.
Oh, when the saints go marching in,
When the saints go marching in,
Oh Lord, I want to be in that number,
When the saints go marching in!
