Philosophy Quote by Lawrence Nault — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Hope is not naive. It’s not a passive dream. It’s a stubborn act of choosing the future again and again, even in the face of collapse.”

“Some truths arrive slowly, like fog rolling in. You don’t see them all at once, but they change everything you thought was solid.”

“The river doesn’t rush to be heard, yet it carves stone. That’s the kind of patience we need now.”

“Let the systems be efficient. Let us be kind.”

“Progress without humility is just destruction in disguise.”

“No one has ever properly understood me, I have never fully understood anyone; and no one understands anyone else”

“In the eighteenth century, philosophers considered the whole of human knowledge, including science, to be their field and discussed questions such as: Did the universe have a beginning? However, in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, science became too technical and mathematical for the philosophers, or anyone else except a few specialists. Philosophers reduced the scope of their inquiries so much that Wittgenstein, the most famous philosopher of this century, said, "The sole remaining task for philosophy is the analysis of language." What a comedown from the great tradition of philosophy from Aristotle to Kant!”

“Whereas I think: I’m lying here in a haystack... The tiny space I occupy is so infinitesimal in comparison with the rest of space, which I don’t occupy and which has no relation to me. And the period of time in which I’m fated to live is so insignificant beside the eternity in which I haven’t existed and won’t exist... And yet in this atom, this mathematical point, blood is circulating, a brain is working, desiring something... What chaos! What a farce!”

“As a philosopher, if I were speaking to a purely philosophic audience I should say that I ought to describe myself as an Agnostic, because I do not think that there is a conclusive argument by which one can prove that there is not a God. On the other hand, if I am to convey the right impression to the ordinary man in the street I think that I ought to say that I am an Atheist, because, when I say that I cannot prove that there is not a God, I ought to add equally that I cannot prove that there are not the Homeric gods.”
