Albert Camus

"Nobody realizes that some people expend tremendous energy merely to be normal."

Thomas Brooks

"Thy soul is a jewel more worth than heaven and earth.  The loss of thy soul is incomparable, irreparable, and irrecoverable; if that be lost, and thou art undone for ever.  Is it madness and folly in a man to kill himself for company, and is it not greater madness or folly to break the neck of thy soul, and to damn it for company?  Suspect that way wherein thou seest multitudes to walk; the multitude being a stream that thou must row hard against, or thou wilt be carried into that gulf out of which angels cannot deliver thee.  Is it not better to walk in a straight way alone, than to wander into crooked ways with company?  Sure it is better to go to heaven alone than to hell with company."

Thomas Brooks

"They that walk with the most shall perish with the most.  They that do as the most shall ere long suffer with the most.  They that live as the most, must die with the most, and to hell with the most."
