Jose Ortega y Gasset

We distinguish the excellent man from the common man by saying that the former is the one who makes great demands upon himself, and the latter who makes no demands on himself.

Order is not pressure which is imposed on society from without, but an equilibrium which is set up from within.

Love is that splendid triggering of human vitality... the supreme activity which nature affords anyone for going out of himself toward someone else.

- Jose Ortega y Gasset
