Chapter 103: Statement of the Problem

"A room without books is like 

a body without a soul."

Marcus Tullius Cicero

"What is a friend?

A single soul dwelling in two bodies."

Aristotle

"Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster.

And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back to you."

Friedrich Nietzsche

"Rummaging in our souls, we often dig up something that ought to 

have lain there unnoticed."

Leo Tolstoy, Anna Karenina

"The soul becomes dyed 

by the color of its thoughts."

Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

"I don't deserve a soul, yet I still have one.

I know because it hurts."

Douglas Coupland, The Gum Thief

"If having a soul means being able to feel love and loyalty and gratitude, then animals are better off than a lot of humans."

James Herriot, 

All Creatures Great and Small
