Philosophy Quote by Jon Wakeham — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“I hope it is not necessary for me to stress the platonic nature of our relationship- not platonic in the purest sense, there was no philosophical discourse, but we certainly didn't fuck, which is usually what people mean by platonic; which I bet would really piss Plato off, that for all his thinking and chatting his name has become an adjective for describing sexless trysts.”

“To achieve great things we must be self-confined...mastery is revealed in limitation.”

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

“Who is to decide which is the grimmer sight: withered hearts, or empty skulls?”

“A lot of people experience the world with the same incredulity as when a magician pulls a rabbit out of a hat.…We know that the world is not all sleight of hand and deception because we are in it, we are part of it. Actually we are the white rabbit being pulled out of the hat. The only difference beween us and the white rabbit is that the rabbit does not realize it is taking part in a magic trick.”
