Image
The quest for our origin is the sweet fruit's juice which maintains satisfaction in the minds of the philosophers.
Luca Pacioli
Image
America's founding Ideal was the principle of individual rights. Nothing more - and nothing less.
Ayn Rand
Image
The great man of science, unless he is also a philosopher, ... deserves the title of genius as little as the man of action.
Otto Weininger
Image
Don't give to anyone the power to put you down. Haters are losers pretending to be winners.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Empty is the argument of the philosopher which does not relieve any human suffering.
Epicurus
Image
I do not think a philosopher who would apply himself so earnestly to the explaining the ultimate principles of the soul, would show himself a great master in the very science of human nature, which he pretends to explain, or very knowing in what is naturally satisfactory to the mind of man.
David Hume
Image
Thus the man who is responsive to artistic stimuli reacts to the reality of dreams as does the philosopher to the reality of existence he observes closely, and he enjoys his observation: for it is out of these images that he interprets life, out of these processes that he trains himself for life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
One who makes himself a worm cannot complain afterwards if people step on him.
Immanuel Kant
Image
I am absolutely convinced that the gas chambers of Auschwitz, Treblinka, and Maidanek were ultimately prepared not in some ministry or other in Berlin, but rather at the desks and in the lecture halls of nihilistic scientists and philosophers.
Viktor E. Frankl
Image
Who are the true philosophers? Those whose passion is to love the truth.
Plato
Image
Earnsha was not to be civilized with a wish, and my young lady was no philosopher, and no paragon of patience but both their minds tending to the same point - one loving and desiring to esteem, and the other loving and desiring to be esteemed - they contrived in the end to reach it.
Emily Bronte
Image
The heart hid still in the dark, hard as the Philosophers Stone.
Paul Celan
Image
Philosophers and theologians have yet to learn that a physical fact is as sacred as a moral principle. Our own nature demands from us this double allegiance.
Louis Agassiz
Image
It is not science which leads to unbelief but rather ignorance. The ignorant man thinks he understands something provided that he sees it every day. The natural philosopher walks amid enigmas, always striving to understand and always half-understanding. He learns to believe what he does not understand, and that is a step on the road to faith.
Jan Potocki
Image
Take from the philosopher the pleasure of being heard and his desire for knowledge ceases.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Image
A married philosopher is a comic character.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
According to Nietzche, said a sharp new voice, making them all jump, philosophy is the biography of the philosopher.
J. K. Rowling
Image
A great scholar is seldom a great philosopher.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Image
Until philosophers hold power, neither states nor individuals will have rest from trouble.
Plato
Image
Learning itself, received into a mind By nature weak, or viciously inclined, Serves but to lead philosophers astray, Where children would with ease discern the way.
William Cowper
Image
To mix science up with philosophy is only to produce a philosophy that has lost all its ideal value and a science that has lost all its practical value. It is for my private physician to tell me whether this or that food will kill me. It is for my private philosopher to tell me whether I ought to be killed.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
Image
He raged for hours. And the skeleton, ever the frail and solelmn philosopher, hung quietly inside, saying not a word, suspended like a delicate insect within a chrysalis, waiting and waiting.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Philosophers can debate the meaning of life, but you need a Lord who can declare the meaning of life.
Max Lucado
Image
There is no such thing as a language, not if a language is anything like what many philosophers and linguists have supposed. Thereis therefore no such thing to be learned, mastered, or born with. We must give up the idea of a clearly defined shared structure which language-users acquire and then apply to cases.
