“Plato is boring.”
Twilight of the Idols • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche“He who desires a lifetime of happiness with a beautiful woman desires to enjoy the taste of wine by keeping his mouth always full of it.”
Maxim for Revolutionists • George Bernard Shaw“Every form of addiction is bad, no matter whether the narcotic be alcohol or morphine or idealism.”
Memories, Dreams, Reflections • Carl Gustav Jung“And how does the God's existence emerge from the proof? Does it follow straightway, without any breach of continuity? Or have we not here an analogy to the behavior of the little Cartesian dolls? As soon as I let go of the doll it stands on its head. As soon as I let it go – I must therefore let it go. So also with the proof. As long as I keep my hold on the proof, i.e., continue to demonstrate, the existence does not come out, if for no other reason than that I am engaged in proving it; but when I let the proof go, the existence is there. But this act of letting go is surely also something; it is indeed a contribution of mine. Must not this also be taken into the account, this little moment, brief as it may be – it need not be long, for it is a leap. However brief this moment, if only an instantaneous now, this "now" must be included in the reckoning.”
Philosophical Fragments • Soren Kierkegaard“To know your Enemy, you must become your Enemy.”
The Art Of War • Sun Tzu
