Until we have begun to go without them, we fail to realize how unnecessary many things are. We've been using them not because we needed them but because we had them.
SenecaTags: philosophy stoic stoicism
I don’t believe anything till I’ve seen the proof. For anything without proof, I think we should believe the theory that gives us peace. It doesn’t matter whether the theory is true or not.
Amish TripathiTags: philosophy
Certains des problèmes que se pose habituellement la pensée philosophique apparaissent même comme dépourvus, non seulement de toute importance, mais de toute signification; il y a là une foule de questions qui ne reposent que sur une équivoque, sur une confusion de points de vue, qui n’existent au fond que parce qu’elles sont mal posées, et qui n’auraient aucunement lieu de se poser vraiment; il suffirait donc, dans bien des cas, d’en mettre l’énoncé au point pour les faire disparaître purement et simplement, si la philosophie n’avait au contraire le plus grand intérêt à les conserver, parce qu’elle vit surtout d’équivoques.
René GuénonTags: philosophy philosophie
Sînt oameni cărora le este dat să guste numai otrava din lucruri, pentru care orice surpriză este o surpriză dureroasă și orice experiență un nou prilej de tortură. Dacă se va spune că această suferință își are motive subiective, ținînd de o constituție particulară, voi întreba: există un criteriu obiectiv pentru aprecierea suferinței? Cine ar putea preciza că vecinul meu suferă mai mult decît mine sau că Isus a suferit mai mult decît toți? Nu există măsură obiectivă, deoarece ea nu se măsoară după excitația exterioară sau indispoziția locală a organismului, ci după modul în care suferința este simțită și reflectată în conștiință.

إذا جاز لنا أن نسمي الحضارة الاسلامية باحدى منتجاتها فانه سيكون علينا أن نقول عنها انها حضارة فقه وذلك نفس المعنى الذي ينطبق على الحضارة اليونانية حينما نقول عنها انها حضارة فلسفة وعلى الحضارة الاوروبية المعاصرة حين نصفها بانها حضارة علم وتقنية

العقل العربي عقل فقهي تكاد تقتصر عبقريته في البحث لكل فرع عن أصل وبالتالي لكل جديد عن قديم يقاس عليه وذلك اعتمادا على النصوص حتى غدا النص هو السلطة المرجعية الاساسية للعقل العربي وفاعليته

The freedom of an unscheduled afternoon brought confusion rather than joy. Julius had always been focused. When he was not seeing patients, other important projects and activities-writing, teaching, tennis, research-clamored for his attention. But today nothing seemed important. He suspected that nothing had ever been important, that his mind had arbitrarily imbued projects with importance and then cunningly covered its traces. Today he saw through the ruse of a lifetime. Today there was nothing important to do, and he ambled aimlessly down Union Street.
