Philosophy Quote by Emily Maroutian — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Hence the sterile, uninspiring futility of a great many theoretical discussions of ethics, and the resentment which many people feel towards such discussions: moral principles remain in their minds as floating abstractions, offering them a goal they cannot grasp and demanding that they reshape their souls in its image, thus leaving them with a burden of undefinable moral guilt.”

“You can recognize a small truth because its opposite is a falsehood. The opposite of a great truth is another truth.”

“It is impossible, or not easy, to alter by argument what has long been absorbed by habit”

“A writer always writes.”

“The summer's flower is to the summer sweet”

“Life is so transient and ephemeral; we will not be here after a breath. So think better, think deeply, think with kindness, and write it with love so that it may live a little longer.”
