Description

"Thaw with her gentle persuasion is more powerful than Thor with his hammer. The one melts, the other breaks into pieces." – Henry David Thoreau

"In the depth of his heart he knew he was dying, but not only was he not accustomed to the thought, he simply did not and could not grasp it. The syllogism he had learnt from Kiesewetter's Logic: 'Caius is a man, men are mortal, therefore Caius is mortal' had always seemed to him correct, but he was Cauis, not an abstract man, but a creature quite, quite separate from all others." – Leo Tolstoy in "The Death of Ivan Ilych"
