All human wisdom is summed up in these two words, “Wait and hope.”
Ask
Ask out loud. Keep reading.
Say “what does obsequious mean?” and hear the meaning that fits your book. In books that teach, a word that names a thing comes with a picture. Ask about the story too: Faria checks what page you’re on first, so an answer never gives away what’s ahead.
Then follow up with can you give me an example?
and Faria builds on what you just heard.
Keep
The best lines, brought back.
Read a line aloud on its own and Faria saves it, tidied up, with a few seconds to undo. Your lines gather on a wall of cards, come back on your lock screen through the day, and share as an image.
Later, on your lock screen
On the book’s wall
There is neither happiness nor misery in the world; there is only the comparison of one state with another.
The friends that we have lost do not repose in the bosom of the earth, but are buried deep in our hearts.
Moral wounds have this peculiarity, they may be hidden, but they never close.
I am not proud, but I am happy, and happiness blinds, I think, more than pride.
Hatred is blind, rage carries you away; and he who pours out vengeance runs the risk of tasting a bitter draught.
Philosophy cannot be taught; it is the application of the sciences to truth.
