“Philosophy begins in wonder. And, at the end, when philosophic thought has done its best, the wonder remains.”

Alfred North Whitehead (1861 – 1947)

“The connotation of courage, which we now feel to be an indispensable quality of the hero, is in fact already present in a willingness to act and speak at all, to insert one’s self into the world and begin a story of one’s own.”

Hannah Arendt (1906 – 1975)
