Quote by Sandra Džananović

“In an age of illusion, being authentic is a form of philosophical resistance - a refusal to betray the truth solely for the comfort of collective lies. It is to recognise that true freedom is found not in conformity, but in the courage to be honest, to think deeply, and to live unshackled by the chains of societal expectation.”

“You remember that lovely passage in which Plato describes how a young Greek should be educated, and with what insistence he dwells upon the importance of surroundings, telling us how the lad is to be brought up in the midst of fair sights and sounds, so that the beauty of material things may prepare his soul for the reception of the beauty that is spiritual. Insensibly, and without knowing the reason why, he is to develop that real love of beauty which, as Plato is never weary of reminding us, is the true aim of education. By slow degrees there is to be engendered in him such a temperament as will lead him naturally and simply to choose the good in preference to the bad, and, rejecting what is vulgar and discordant, to follow by fine instinctive taste all that possesses grace and charm and loveliness. Ultimately, of course, this taste is to become critical and self-conscious, but at first it is to exist purely as a cultivated instinct, and ‘he who has received this true culture of the inner man will with clear and certain vision per­ceive the omissions and faults in art or nature, and with a taste that cannot err, while he praises, and finds his pleasure in what is good, and receives it into his soul, and so becomes good and noble, will rightly blame and hate the bad, now in the days of his youth, even before he is able to know the reason why:’ and so, when, later on, the critical and self-conscious spirit develops in him, he ‘will recognise and salute it as a friend with whom his education has made him long familiar.”

“You can dress up a chimpanzee in a fancy suit, but that doesn't turn the chimpanzee into a human, but if that chimp can share his meal with another hungry chimp, then that chimp is more human than all of the selfish humanity combined. Appearance doesn't make you human, your behavior does - your accountability does - your sense of community does.”
