    Do you want to have an easy life? Then always stay with the herd and lose yourself in the herd.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    It is not an arbitrary “decree of God,” but in the nature of man, that a veil shuts down on the facts of to-morrow; for the soul will not have us read any other cipher than that of cause and effect. By this veil, which curtains events, it instructs the children of men to live in to-day.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    It’s usually the stupid people that develop long illnesses. You need more than indolence and selfishness, you need endurance to make a good patient.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
