Quote by Tove Jansson

“Sniff lay under his blanket and screamed. "Now it's right over us!" said Moominpappa. And at that moment a giant flash of lighting lit up the island, followed by a rending crash. "That struck something!" said the Snork. It was really a bit too much. The Hemulen sat holding his head. "Trouble! Always trouble!" he muttered.”

“Ahora, pues, mientras la sangre está caliente, los vigorosos han de caminar a lo mejor. En este género de vida te espera mucha parte de las buenas ciencias, el amor y ejercicio de la virtud, el olvido de los deleites, el arte de vivir y morir y, finalmente, un soberano descanso. El estado de todos los ocupados es miserable; pero el de aquéllos que aun no son suyas las ocupaciones en que trabajan es miserabilísimo; duermen por sueño ajeno, andan con ajenos pasos, comen con ajena gana; hasta el amar y aborrecer, que son acciones tan libres, lo hacen mandados.”
