Karl Marx "History repeats itself, first as tragedy, second as farce." Rumi "Everything that is made beautiful and fair and lovely is made for the eye of one who sees." Albert Camus "Basically, at the very bottom of life, which seduces us all, there is only absurdity, and more absurdity. And maybe that's what gives us our joy for living, because the only thing that can defeat absurdity is lucidity." |
