Arthur Schopenhauer
All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.
Buying books would be a good thing if one could also buy the time to read them in but as a rule the purchase of books is mistaken for the appropriation of their contents.
Compassion is the basis of all morality.
Every nation ridicules other nations, and all are right.
Every person takes the limits of their own field of vision for the limits of the world.
<< Bruce Schneier Budd Schulberg >>
