More quotes by Arthur Schopenhauer
Reading is a mere makeshift for original thinking.
Arthur Schopenhauer
Every genius is a great child he gazes out at the world as something strange, a spectacle, and therefore with purely objective interest
Arthur Schopenhauer
At bottom, every state regards another as a gang of robbers who will fall upon it as soon as there is an opportunity.
Arthur Schopenhauer
Music is the melody whose text is the world.

Just as the largest library, badly arranged, is not so useful as a very moderate one that is well arranged, so the greatest amount of knowledge, if not elaborated by our own thoughts, is worth much less than a far smaller volume that has been abundantly and repeatedly thought over.
Arthur Schopenhauer
Patriotism is the passion of fools and the most foolish of passions.
Arthur Schopenhauer
A man of genius can hardly be sociable, for what dialogues could indeed be so intelligent and entertaining as his own monologues?
Arthur Schopenhauer
It would be better if there were nothing. Since there is more pain than pleasure on earth, every satisfaction is only transitory, creating new desires and new distresses, and the agony of the devoured animal is always far greater than the pleasure of the devourer
Arthur Schopenhauer
If God made this world, then i would not want to be the God. It is full of misery and distress that it breaks my heart.
Arthur Schopenhauer
Hope is the confusion of the desire for a thing with its probability.
Arthur Schopenhauer
The life of every individual is really always a tragedy, but gone through in detail, it has the character of a comedy.
Arthur Schopenhauer
The fruits of Christianity were religious wars, butcheries, crusades, inquisitions, extermination of the natives of America, and the introduction of African slaves in their place.
Arthur Schopenhauer
It is difficult to find happiness within oneself, but it is impossible to find it anywhere else.
Arthur Schopenhauer
It is in the treatment of trifles that a person shows what they are.
Arthur Schopenhauer
Talent works for money and fame the motive which moves genius to productivity is, on the other hand, less easy to determine.
Arthur Schopenhauer
The brain may be regarded as a kind of parasite of the organism, a pensioner, as it were, who dwells with the body.
Arthur Schopenhauer
The problem with Germans is that they look in the clouds for what lies at their feet.
Arthur Schopenhauer
Time is that in which all things pass away.
Arthur Schopenhauer
Pleasure is never as pleasant as we expected it to be and pain is always more painful. The pain in the world always outweighs the pleasure. If you don't believe it, compare the respective feelings of two animals, one of which is eating the other.
Arthur Schopenhauer
What a person is for himself, what abides with him in his loneliness and isolation, and what no one can give or take away from him, this is obviously more essential for him than everything that he possesses or what he may be in the eyes of others.
Arthur Schopenhauer
