More quotes by Miguel de Unamuno
Only he who attempts the absurd is capable of achieving the impossible.
Miguel de Unamuno
Whenever a man talks he lies, and so far as he talks to himself - that is to say, so far as he thinks, knowing that he thinks - he lies to himself. The only truth in human life is that which is physiological. Speech - this thing that they call a social product - was made for lying.

Miguel de Unamuno
Science teaches us, in effect, to submit our reason to the truth and to know and judge of things as they are-that is to say, as they themselves choose to be and not as we would have them to be.
Miguel de Unamuno
It is not the shilling I give you that counts, but the warmth that it carries with it from my hand.
Miguel de Unamuno
The pessimism that protests and defends itself cannot be truly said to be pessimism.
Miguel de Unamuno
Was man made for science, or was science made for man?
