Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.
-George Carlin

oh yeah- Found On Road Dead. not much of a quote though

 

It is quite true what Philosophy says: that Life must be understood backwards. But that makes one forget the other saying: that it must be lived--forwards. The more one ponders this, the more it comes to mean that life in the temporal existence never becomes quite intelligible, precisely because at no moment can I find complete quiet to take the backward-looking position.
--Søren Kierkegaard

 

That is f---in deep.

 

Batman's Creed...
"...the individual is defined only by his relationship to the world and to other individuals; he exists only by transcending himself, and his freedom can be achieved only through the freedom of others. He justifies his existence by a movement which, like freedom, springs from his heart but which leads outside of himself."
~ Dr. Thomas Wayne, 1948

It is the duty of the human understanding to understand that there are things which it cannot understand, and what those things are. Human understanding has vulgarly occupied itself with nothing but understanding, but if it would only take the trouble to understand itself at the same time it would simply have to posit the paradox.



Søren Kierkegaard

 

Interesting character but too cerebral for me.
I've never had the patience for introspective philosophy.

This is me on the right, I tried Plato once but prefer cake.
I cry because Evelyn the modified dog can only say arf.



Actually I'm reading Lies My Teacher Taught Me when I sit and think and **** and stink
and The Ninth: Beethoven and the World in 1824 when I smoke and caffeinate in the garage.

Face the facts of being what you are, for that is what changes what you are.
