Herman Melville
“Talk not to me of blasphemy, man; I'd strike the sun if it insulted me.”
Herman Melville, Moby-Dick or, The Whale

Joseph Campbell
“Wherever the poetry of myth is interpreted as biography, history, or science, it is killed.”
Joseph Campbell, The Hero With a Thousand Faces

Bram Stoker
“Oh, the terrible struggle that I have had against sleep so often of late; the pain of the sleeplessness, or the pain of the fear of sleep, and with such unknown horror as it has for me! How blessed are some people, whose lives have no fears, no dreads; to whom sleep is a blessing that comes nightly, and brings nothing but sweet dreams.”
Bram Stoker, Dracula

Thucydides
“Some legislators only wish to vengeance against a particular enemy. Others only look out for themselves. They devote very little time on the consideration of any public issue. They think that no harm will come from their neglect. They act as if it is always the business of somebody else to look after this or that. When this selfish notion is entertained by all, the commonwealth slowly begins to decay. ”
Thucydides

Plutarch
“The mind is not a vessel to be filled, but a fire to be kindled.”
Plutarch
