Mika Waltari Quotes Page 1 of 1Mika Waltari September 19, 1908 - August 26, 1979 Nationality: Finnish Category: Author
| So foolish is the heart of man that he ever puts his hope in the future, learning nothing from his past errors and fancying that tomorrow must be better than today. | A decision once taken brings peace to a man's mind and eases his soul. | So much is man the slave of his heart that he will shut his eyes to what does not please him and believe all that he hopes. | During my life I have seen, known, and lost too much to be the prey of vain dread; and, as for the hope of immortality, I am as weary of that as I am of gods and kings. For my own sake only I write this; and herein I differ from all other writers, past and to come. |
