“The Christian religion seems to have fulfilled its great biological purpose, in so far as we are able to judge. It has led human thought to independence, and has lost its significance, therefore, to a yet undetermined extent.... It seems to me that we might still make use in some way of its form of thought, and especially of its great wisdom of life, which for two thousand years has proven to be particularly efficacious.”
Psychology of the Unconscious • Carl Gustav Jung“Keeping up appearances, living in borrowed finery, wearing masks, the drapery of convention, play-acting for the benefit of others and oneself ... the constant fluttering of human beings around the one flame of vanity is so much the rule and the law that there is virtually nothing which defies understanding so much as the fact that an honest and pure drive towards truth should ever have emerged in them. They are deeply immersed in illusions and dream-images; their eyes merely glide across the surface of things and see 'forms'; nowhere does their perception lead to truth.”
The Gay Science • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche“I drink when I have occasion, and sometimes when I have no occasion.”
Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes“War being the greatest of evils, all its accessories necessarily partake of the same character.”
Omoo • Herman Melville“Great intellects are skeptical.”
The Antichrist • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
