The busier we are, the more acutely we feel that we live, the more conscious we are of life. - Immanuel Kant

Perhaps a revolution can overthrow autocratic despotism and profiteering or power-grabbing oppression, but it can never truly reform a manner of thinking; instead, new prejudices, just like the old ones they replace, will serve as a leash for the great unthinking mass

It is discipline, which prevents man from being turned aside by his animal impulses from humanity, his appointed end.

But only he who, himself enlightened, is not afraid of shadows.
