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

“Excessive praise arises from the same bigotry matrix as excessive criticism.”

“Truth has nothing to do with the conclusion, and everything to do with the methodology.”

“There's a huge swath of humanity that has developed verbal abilities to extract resources from guilt-ridden people.”

“Conformity to the present is invisibility to the future.”

“The three most important words in a relationship are not, 'I love you,' but, 'Tell me more.”

“Knowledge is responsibility, which is why people resist knowledge.”

“If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind.”

“Don't write to sell, write to tell.”

“Are you not ashamed of caring so much for the making of money and for fame and prestige, when you neither think nor care about wisdom and truth and the improvement of your soul?”

“Hoarded things might easily become a menace; a mere fire-and-theft risk; a breeding-ground for destructive insects; a source of worry. Men would have plenty of anxieties, but there was no sense in accumulating worries over THINGS! That kind of worry destroyed your character. Even an unused coat, hanging in your closet—it wasn't merely a useless thing that did nobody any good; it was an active agent of destruction to your life. And your LIFE must be saved, at all costs. What would it advantage a man—Jesus had demanded—if he were to gain the whole world, and lose his own life?”

“Water everywhere, falling in thundering cataracts, singular drops, and draping sheets. Kellhus paused next to one of the shining braziers, peered beneath the bronze visage that loomed orange and scowling over his father, watched him lean back into absolute shadow.”
