“Whenever a man talks he lies, and so far as he talks to himself - that is to say, so far as he thinks, knowing that he thinks - he lies to himself. The only truth in human life is that which is physiological. Speech - this thing that they call a social product - was made for lying.” ThinkingMenHumansMadeLife IsLyingSocialKnowingProductsSpeechHuman LifePhysiological Book:Mist: A Tragicomic Novel Source: Mist: A Tragicomic Novel
“Life is more than thought: what a man feels, and what his senses awaken in him, are more indispensable to his life's fullness than subsequent reflection on their significance. Both Stirner and Nietzsche have elaborated Faust's opening speech in which he bemoans his wasted years in academia: this speech is Goethe's own impeachment of Kant and Hegel . Philosophy proceeds always under the risk of making a fetish of thinking.” ThinkingMenFeelsYearsPhilosophyLife IsRiskSpeechReflectionSensesOpeningSignificanceIndispensableFullnessAcademiaFetishHegelImpeachmentFaust Author:John Carroll
“Everyone has his food, and his time of life is reckoned.Their tongues are separate in speech,And their natures as well;Their skins are distinguished,As thou distinguishest the foreign peoples.Thou makest a Nile in the underworld,Thou bringest forth as thou desirestTo maintain the peopleAccording as thou madest them for thyself,The lord of all of them, wearying with them,The lord of every land, rising for them,The Aton of the day, great of majesty.” WellsLife IsLordLandSpeechSkinsTongueRisingMajestyThyselfDistinguishedUnderworldNileMakest Author:Akhenaton
