Joseph Joubert When the listener does not understand the speaker and the speaker does not know what he is saying: this is philosophy. Voltaire Don't get so tolerant that you tolerate intolerance. Bill Maher When we are no longer able to change a situation – we are challenged to change ourselves. Viktor E. Frankl The great and tragic problem about artificial intelligence is that it is strongly influenced by natural stupidity. Carl William Brown We are all islands shouting lies to each other across seas of misunderstanding. Rudyard Kipling The time you enjoy waisting is not wasted time. Bertrand Russell Most people when they come to you for advice, come to have their own opinions strengthened, not corrected. Josh Billings The enjoyment of power inevitably corrupts the judgment of reason, and perverts its liberty. Immanuel Kant A writer who says that there are no truths, or that all truth is ‘merely relative,’ is asking you not to believe him. So don’t. Roger Scruton Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body.

Roger Scruton Where pain, risk, anxiety, memories, dissatisfaction and death roam, there my destiny was forged. Carl William Brown Don’t be pushed around by the fears in your mind. Be led by the dreams in your heart. Roy. T. Bennett One day machines will be able to solve all problems, but none of them will ever be able to pose a problem. Albert Einstein

Awesome quotes and aphorisms I desire to go to Hell and not to Heaven. In the former I shall enjoy the company of popes, kings and princes, while in the latter are only beggars, monks and apostles. Niccolò Machiavelli Great men are always of a nature originally melancholy. Aristotle Rest, nature, books, music, such is my idea of happiness. Leo Tolstoy Once a disease has entered the body, all parts which are healthy must fight it: not one alone, but all. Because a disease might mean their common death. Nature knows this; and Nature attacks the disease with whatever help she can muster. Philippus A. Paracelsus Without literature, life is hell. Charles Bukowski Seriousness is an accident of time. It consists of putting too high a value on time. In eternity there is no time. Eternity is a moment, just long enough for a joke.

Niccolò Machiavelli The paradox is a telescope for the stars and a microscope for the minimal bodies. Lèon Bloy There must be someone who keeps pushing the boundaries of the ridiculous. Ennio Flaiano Life is not worth living unless it is lived for someone else. Albert Einstein Before the internet we thought that stupidity was due to a lack of information. Today we know it wasn't for that. Carl William Brown

Great awesome quotes and aphorisms Summer afternoon - summer afternoon; to me those have always been the two most beautiful words in the English language. Henry James The best doctors in the world are Doctor Diet, Doctor Quiet, and Doctor Merryman. Jonathan Swift It is a hard thing to leave any deeply routined life, even if you hate it. John Steinbeck He who considers disease results to be the disease itself, and expects to do away with these as diseases, is insane.

Margaret Atwood Born this way, in a place where the masses turn idiots into successful heroes. Charles Bukowski A serious and good philosophical work could be written consisting entirely of jokes.

Arthur Schopenhauer The reward of sin is death? That’s hard. Si peccasse negamus, fallimur, et nulla est in nobis veritas. If we say that we have no sin, We deceive ourselves, and there’s no truth in us. Christopher Marlowe All my life to find the center, and in the end the circumference explodes. Carl Willliam Brown Teach someone to be a writer and he will be poor for the rest of his life. Anonymous The price of apathy towards public affairs is to be ruled by evil men. Plato There's no coming to conciousness without pain. Carl Jung Optimism is the madness of insisting that all is well when we are miserable. Voltaire My Crown is in my heart, not on my head: Not deck'd with Diamonds, and Indian stones: Nor to be seen: my Crown is call'd Content, A Crown it is, that seldom Kings enjoy. William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

100 great aphorisms and awesome quotes The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum. Noam Chomsky There is a kind of sadness that comes from knowing too much, from seeing the world as it truly is. Virginia Woolf Eros seizes and shakes my very soul like the wind on the mountain shaking ancient oaks. Sappho I have turned my life upside down. Before I was sad and depressed; now I am depressed and sad. David Frost Love is the answer, but while you are waiting for the answer, sex raises some pretty good questions.

Texas Rangers better know what they’re getting with Max Scherzer

The Rangers haven’t spent all this time operating like tomorrow is coming, so there’s no reason to stop now. Two winters ago it was Corey Seager and Marcus Semien, which went well. Last winter it was Jacob deGrom, which…well, not so much. You keep letting it ride, sometimes you lose. But that doesn’t mean you should stop, at least that’s what I think Kipling said. Why did Jemele Hill leave…
