100 exceptional quotes and aphorisms

100 exceptional quotes and aphorisms 100 exceptional quotes and aphorisms, that is 100 distinguished, eminent, excellent, famous, special, great and magnificent quotes chosen by Carl William Brown. Since aphorisms represent discontinuous knowledge, they invite further inquiry, while systems, bearing the semblance of a certain totality, reassure men as if they were at the pinnacle of knowledge. Francis Bacon Sadness is caused by intelligence, the more you understand certain things, the more you wish you didn't understand them. Charles Bukowski The longer I live, the more I am convinced that this planet is being used by other planets as the madhouse of the universe. George Bernard Shaw Little things have their importance: it is always for little things that we get lost. Fyodor Dostoevsky Books weigh a lot: yet those who feed on them, and put them in their bodies, live among the clouds. Luigi Pirandello The present age is the time of golden mediocrity and insensitivity, of the passion for ignorance, of laziness, of inability to work and of the aspiration to find everything ready-made. No one thinks; rarely is there anyone who conceives an idea. Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky Thanks to language, humans have developed their knowledge and at the same time have also magnified their stupidity. Carl William Brown At the heart of every aphorism, no matter how new or even paradoxical it may seem, beats an ancient truth. Arthur Schnitzler Life is, in fact, a struggle. On this point pessimists and optimists agree. Evil is insolent and strong; beauty is beautiful, but rare; goodness is often apt to be weak, folly to be arrogant, and wickedness to prevail; fools in the places of honor and the best aloof; and humanity, as a whole, unhappy. Henry James An artist's duty is rather to stay open-minded and in a state where he can receive information and inspiration. You always have to be ready for that little artistic Epiphany. Nick Cave Sic aliud ex alio numquam desistet oriri/vitaque mancipio nulli datur, omnibus usu.

Higgins Empathy may be the single most important quality that must be nurtured to give peace a fighting chance. Arundhati Roy There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it. Edith Wharton To my muses. I like people who don't like things easily, if they dislike them, even better! Carl William Brown And so, from hour to hour, we ripe and ripe, and then, from hour to hour, we rot and rot; and thereby hangs a tale. William Shakespeare We all have to die, all of us, what a circus! If only for this we should all love each other and instead no, we are crushed by banality, we are devoured by nothingness. Charles Hank Bukowski Considering ourselves experts often turns us into idiots. Oliver Burkeman Communicate. Even when it’s uncomfortable or uneasy. One of the best ways to heal, is simply getting everything out. Anonymous This is only one of impostorism's frustrating ironies. Another is that true frauds and idiots rarely seem to experience it. Oliver Burkeman Unfortunately, we were brought into the world without any guarantees and with a rather limited understanding of total quality. Carl William Brown Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars. Kahlil Gibran If you’re in a state of confidence and positive expectancy, the decisions, you make will be quite different than if you’re feeling vulnerable and fearful.

Arthur Schopenhauer The world is a very mysterious and confusing place, if you are not willing to get confused, you become a replica of someone else's mind.

Rainer Maria Rilke From a certain point onwards there is no return. This is the point to reach. Franz Kafka A stupid man's report of what a clever man says is never accurate, because he unconsciously translates what he hears into something that he can understand. Bertrand Russell You can't overestimate the stupidity of the general public. Charles Bukowski An artist who creates literary works should have more awareness and more expertise than a surgeon, he is not operating on a man, he is intervening on humanity. Carl William Brown Man gives every reason for his conduct save one, every excuse for his crimes save one, every plea for his safety save one; and that one is his cowardice. George Bernard Shaw No society wants you to become wise: it is against the investment of all societies. Osho Having your head in the clouds is very comfortable, it allows you to meet only people who know how to fly. Alda Merini An old love is like a grain of sand, in an eye, that always torments us. Voltaire In fact, a wise man is afire, alive, aflame. He would like rather to die than to be enslaved.

Carl William Brown No rose without a thorn. Yes, but many a thorn without a rose. Arthur Schopenhauer Privacy is power. People cannot destroy what they do not know. Anonymous It’s human nature when you lose money quickly you want to make it back twice as quick. Slow down, keep focused, and stick to your strategy. Ian Cassel The ability to cut a loss while it’s small is a core trading skill. Steve Burns The positive force and negative force of a magnet cannot coexist in the same mind. Neither can faith and fear coexist in the same mind. People full of fear, worry, doubt, indecision, and other negative thinking cannot at the same time possess faith, confidence, belief and positive expectancy. Paul J Meyer Confidence doesn’t come out of nowhere. It’s a result of something... hours and days and weeks and years of constant work and dedication. Roger Staubach For humans the greatest paradox, or absurdity if you prefer, is to have the knowledge of eternity and at the same time the awareness of the extremely limited duration of one's existence. Carl William Brown A good writer possesses not only his own spirit but also the spirit of his friends. Friedrich Nietzsche We can have the best health insurance options in the world, and people still won't get needed care if we don't increase our supply of primary care physicians and nurses. Jeff Merkley No diagnosis, no prognosis. No prognosis, no profit. Jesse Livermore Living is a sickness to which sleep provides relief every sixteen hours. It's a palliative. The remedy is death. Sebastien-Roch Nicolas De Chamfort Do not do good if you do not have the strength to bear ingratitude. Confucius You will know great pain and in pain you will be happy. Here is my teaching: in pain seek happiness. Fyodor Dostoevsky Every man desires to live long, but no man wishes to be old. Jonathan Swift Life is a pill that no one can swallow unless it is golden.

William Shakespeare Death, memory, memories, these are the three fundamental key words of all human art. Carl William Brown Stupidity is far more dangerous than evil, for evil takes a break from time to time, stupidity does not.
