Friedrich nitzsche said:

There are days when I am haunted by a feeling that is blacker than the blackest melancholy. I have a contempt for humanity. I despise the people I have been fated to call my contemporaries. I feel suffocated by their presence.

And shair-e-mashriq(poet of the east) Allama Iqbal wrote:

Duniya ki mehfilo se ukta gaya hu ya rab,

Kya lutf anjuman ka jab dil hi bujh gaya ho.

O Lord, I'm tired of this life,these human gatherings these daily chores. What is the point of having people around when the heart is worn out?

Sometimes I find myself overwhelmed by such a sense of negativity that every aspect of life seems too heavy on me.

What is the last classic you read? . . I recently finished Summer by Edith Wharton. I hope to reread The Great Gatsby in the next month. Have you heard of Spritz speed reading? I was going to try it with TGG and see how I like it. If you’ve never heard of this form of reading you should google it and watch a video. It’s bizarre how it works. Not sure I will love it but I really want to give it a try. . . . . #classicliterature #booksforlife #literarture #stacksofbooks #bookshelfie #bookshelf #bookshelves @munrobooks (at Munro's Books) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0BsnoKHKvC/?igshid=opco0vc213zp

“The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men” is such a humdinger Of a good line that you might think it’s from some kind of a classic literarture, but in fact it is a quote from Joss Wheaton, star of the movie “Pulp Fiction”
