If people should ever start to do only what is necessary millions would die of hunger. - Georg Christoph Lichtenberg

Nothing can contribute more to peace of soul than the lack of any opinion whatever.

We often have need of a profound philosophy to restore to our feelings their original state of innocence, to find our way out of the rubble of things alien to us, to begin to feel for ourselves and to speak ourselves, and I might almost say to exist ourselves. Even if my philosophy does not extend to discovering anything new, it does nevertheless possess the courage to regard as questionable what has long been thought true.

Un libro es como un espejo: si un mono se asoma a él no puede ver reflejado a un apóstol. Carecemos de palabras para hablar con los tontos de sabiduría. Ya es sabio quien entiende a un sabio.
