More quotes by Miguel de Unamuno
Isolation is the worst possible counselor.
Miguel de Unamuno
Hell has been conceived as a police institution, to inspire fear in this world. But the worst of it all is that it no longer frightens anyone, and therefore it will have to be closed down.
Miguel de Unamuno
And killing time is perhaps the essence of comedy, just as the essence of tragedy is killing eternity.
Miguel de Unamuno
The tears of anguish irritate and excite but those of repentance are the ones that wash.
Miguel de Unamuno
Those faults we do not have, do not bother us.
Miguel de Unamuno
The chiefest sanctity of a temple is that it is a place to which men go to weep in common.
Miguel de Unamuno
What is certain is that for thinking believers to-day, faith is, before all and above all, wishing that God may exist.
Miguel de Unamuno
Fascism is cured by reading, and racism is cured by traveling
Miguel de Unamuno
Knowledge for the sake of knowledge! Truth for truth's sake! This is inhuman.
Miguel de Unamuno
The devil is an angel too.
Miguel de Unamuno
It is not usually our ideas that make us optimistic or pessimistic, but it is our optimism or pessimism of physiological or pathological origin that makes our ideas.
Miguel de Unamuno
There is no tyranny in the world more hateful than that of ideas. Ideas bring ideophobia, and the consequence is that people begin to persecute their neighbors in the name of ideas. I loathe and detest all labels, and the only label that I could now tolerate would be that of ideoclast or idea breaker.
Miguel de Unamuno
If a person never contradicts himself, it must be that he says nothing.
Miguel de Unamuno
Martyrs create faith, faith does not create martyrs.
Miguel de Unamuno
All knowledge has an ultimate goal. Knowledge for the sake of knowledge is, say what you will, nothing but a dismal begging of the question.
Miguel de Unamuno
The less we read, the more harmful it is what we read.
Miguel de Unamuno
There are people who are so full of common sense that they haven't the slightest cranny left for their own sense.
Miguel de Unamuno
True science teaches, above all, to doubt and be ignorant.
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
Everything that exalts and expands consciousness is good, while that which depresses and diminishes it is evil.
Miguel de Unamuno
