“In our monogamous part of the world, to marry means to halve one's rights and double one's duties.”
Parerga and Paralipomena • Arthur Schopenhauer“Optimism is not only a false but also a pernicious doctrine, for it presents life as a desirable state and man's happiness as its aim and object. Starting from this, everyone then believes he has the most legitimate claim to happiness and enjoyment. If, as usually happens, these do not fall to his lot, he believes that he suffers an injustice, in fact that he misses the whole point of his existence.”
The World As Will and Representation • Arthur Schopenhauer“It is better to be making the news than taking it; to be an actor rather than a critic.”
Never Give In! • Winston S Churchill““You could eat in the finest restaurants, […] soak up whole thunderstorms of applause, you could travel to the ends of the Earth, you could be followed by millions on the internet, you could win Olympic medals, but this was all meaningless without love.””
Midnight Library • Matt Haig“Men of profound sadness betray themselves when they are happy: they have a way of embracing happiness as if they wanted to crush and suffocate it, from jealousy: alas, they know only too well that it will flee.”
Beyond Good and Evil • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
