“A straight path never leads anywhere except to the objective.”
Journals • Andre Gide“If to do were as easy as to know what were good to do, chapels had been churches, and poor men’s cottages princes’ palaces.”
The Merchant of Venice • William Shakespeare““In the West, we have been withdrawing from our tradition-, religion- and even nation-centred cultures, partly to decrease the danger of group conflict. But we are increasingly falling prey to the desperation of meaninglessness, and that is no improvement at all.””
12 Rules For Life: An Antidote To Chaos • Jordan B. Peterson“If you feel irritated by the absurd remarks of two people whose conversation you happen to overhear, you should imagine that you are listening to a dialogue of two fools in a comedy.”
Counsels and Maxims • Arthur Schopenhauer“Not merely in the realm of commerce but in the world of ideas as well our age is organizing a regular clearance sale. Everything is to be had at such a bargain that it is questionable whether in the end there is anybody who will want to bid. Every speculative price-fixer who conscientiously directs attention to the significant march of modern philosophy, every Privatdocent, tutor, and student, every crofter and cottar goes further. Perhaps it would be untimely and ill-timed to ask them where they are going.”
Fear and Trembling • Soren Kierkegaard
