About the book: 2023 / The result of a personal analysis of fourteen literary sources and selection of the most strongly resonant quotes from them: "Aphorisms. Collection of wisdom of all times and peoples. 8800 aphorisms of great people" by Bakun, "Aphorisms of worldly wisdom" by Schopenhauer, "New book of aphorisms" by Dushenko, "My faith" by Gandhi, "Thoughts" by Schopenhauer, "On benefits" by Seneca, "On mercy" by Seneca, "Etudes on nature of man" by Mechnikov, "The Fall of Idols" by Nietzsche, "Judgments and Conversations" by Confucius, "Dialogues" by Plato, "The Gay Science" by Nietzsche, "On Universal Love" by Leontyev, "Thus Spoke Zarathustra" by Nietzsche. The authorship of quotes is not given intentionally, because the same thoughts have been expressed by different people over the centuries, and knowledge of authorship can sometimes result in a biased judgment about the thoughts expressed. I was inspired to publish the book by my godson Gosha.
