Philosophy Quote by Stefan Molyneux — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Asshole Proximity Disorder”

“Distraction serves evil more than any other mental state.”

“Honesty requires that we communicate our thoughts and feelings, not our conclusions.”

“Excuses are a promise of repetition.”

“We may not yet know the right way to go, but we should at least stop going in the wrong direction.”

“What we do not confront, we inhabit.”

“Only the descent into the hell of self-knowledge can pave the way to godliness.”

“O how incomprehensible everything was, and actually sad, although it was also beautiful. One knew nothing. One lived and ran about the earth and rode through forests, and certain things looked so challenging and promising and nostalgic: a star in the evening, a blue harebell, a reed-green pond, the eye of a person or a cow. And sometimes it seemed that something never seen yet long desired was about to happen, that a veil would drop from it all, but then it passed, nothing happened, the riddle remained unsolved, the secret spell unbroken, and in the end one grew old and looked cunning . . . or wise . . . and still one knew nothing perhaps, was still waiting and listening.”

“Happiness is a very pretty thing to feel, but very dry to talk about.”

“First impressions are rarely worth preserving. Men typically fall short of our expectations.”

“I am strangely tired, not from having talked so much but at the mere thought of what I still have to say”
