Reseña del libro "Provocative and Contemplative Quotations: With Author Comments and Observations (en Inglés)"

Emerson wrote that thinking is hard to do, which is why so few do it. Socrates asserted the unexamined life is not worth living, Franklin pondered prudentiality, Sartre examined the existentialist void, Boëthius described the wheel of fortune, Cicero mused on old age, Shakespeare dramatized revenge, La Rochefoucauld unveiled vice's tribute to virtue, Montaigne said no wind works for those with no port of destination and Sophocles explained it is a mistake to wait until evening to see how splendid the day has been. For millennia brilliant historic thinkers have pondered timeless truths about human nature. Many provocative and contemplative ideas have resonated through time, proving as meaningful today as in the past. This book offers a compendium of thought-provoking quotations along with cogent author comments. It is a celebration of thinking-and thought never goes out of fashion.
