Incapability Quotes

“Since they are incapable of exploring other perspectives, they internalize this idea and end up as robots who always think in the same way and tirelessly complain about the exact same things, such as getting depressed over "being ugly," furious over "being unable to fit in," shameful over "not being popular," or even becoming suicidal over not being able to have sex and turning into a killer due to being deprived of the "right to party.”

“I believe that there is no test of greatness in periods, nations or men more sure than the development, among them or in them, of a noble grotesque, and no test of comparative smallness or limitation, of one kind or another, more sure than the absence of grotesque invention, or incapability of understanding it.”

“In mortals there is a care for trifles which proceeds from love and conscience, and is most holy; and a care for trifles which comes of idleness and frivolity, and is most base. And so, also, there is a gravity proceeding from thought, which is most noble; and a gravity proceeding from dulness and mere incapability of enjoyment, which is most base.”

“We're an ignorant nation right now. We're not really capable, I do not think, the majority of our people, of making the decisions that have to be made at election time and particularly in the selection of their legislatures and their Congress and the presidency, of course. I don't think we're bright enough to do the job that would preserve our democracy, our republic. I think we're in serious danger.”
