The most happy are the stupid. The strictest justice is sometimes the greatest injustice. Most of the luxuries and many of the so-called comforts of life, are not only not indispensable, but positive hindrances to the elevation of mankind. I have often said, and oftener think, that this world is a comedy for those who think, and a tragedy for those who feel. The human animal cannot be itself without this exciting enhancement.
All great ideas are dangerous.
We are never more true to ourselves than when we are inconsistent. A man who does not think for himself, does not think. There is a land of the living and a land of the dead and the only bridge is love, the only survival, the only meaning. The chief aim of wisdom is to enable one to bear with the stupidity of the ignorant. Answer, 'Another I'.
