(Sigmund Freud)
"There is an ecstasy that marks the summit of life, and beyond which life cannot rise. And such is the paradox of living, this ecstasy comes when one is most alive, and it comes as a complete forgetfulness that one is alive." (Jack London)
"If you refuse to listen and consider your opponents side of an arguement without an open mind you destroy the possibility of learning. And if you aren't willing to admit the mistakes within your own beliefs and opinions you can never correct them. Without using your reason and logic your words will influence no one."
"You must ask yourself; Why should I spend the unreversable years of my life earning a substance (money) that i will have no use for in my eternal afterlife? Our happiness is what we will always possess, for it is eternally embedded into our soul."
"The best and greatest among mankind are those who do themselves no worldly good. Every successful man is more or less a selfish man. The devoted fail." (Anthony Trollope)
"I prefer the saddle to the streetcar and the star-sprinkled sky to a roof, the obscure and difficult trail, leading into the unknown, to any paved highway, and the deep peace of the wild to the discontent bred by cities." (Everett Ruess)
"The older person does not realize the soul-flights of the adolescent." (Everett Ruess)

There is a rapture on the lonely shores;
There is society, where none intrudes,
By the deep sea, and the music in its roar:
I love not man the less, but Nature more." (Lord Byron)
"Get busy living or get busy dying, thats god damn right." (The Shawshank Redemption)

We just have to have the courage to turn against our habitual lifestyle and engage in unconventional living." (Christopher McCandless)
"Whenever a true theory appears, it will be its own evidence. Its test is, that it will explain all phenomena." (Ralph Waldo Emerson)
"In the presence of nature, a wild delight runs through the man, in spite of real sorrows. Nature says, he is my creature, and in spite of all his impertinent griefs, he shall be gald with me." (Ralph Waldo Emerson)
"It is also quite clear that if we do not soon rediscover how to stand in awe of this planet we are so greedily dismantling, human history will soon be over." (Henry David Thoreau)
"The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion which stands at the cradle of true art and true science." (Albert Einstein)
"Every path but your own is the path of fate. Keep on your on track, then." (Henry David Thoreau)
"You who govern public affairs, what need have you to employee punishments? Love virtue, and the people will be virtuous. The virtues of a superior man are like the wind; the virtues of a common man are like the grass; the grass, when the wind passes over it, bends." (Henry David Thoreau)
