Quote: Arthur Schopenhauer
Arthur Schopenhauer, Ph.D., German Philosopher, Atheist
In the ordinary man, injustice rouses a passionate desire for vengeance; . . . where there is a great deal of pride and vanity, there also will there be a great desire of vengeance.

Arthur Schopenhauer, Ph.D., German Philosopher, Atheist
Hope is the result of confusing the desire that something should take place with the probability that it will.
Quote: Arthur Schopenhauer
Arthur Schopenhauer, Ph.D., German Philosopher, Atheist
Ignorance is degrading only when found in company with riches. The poor man is restrained by poverty and need: labor occupies his thoughts, and takes the place of knowledge. But rich men who are ignorant live for their lusts only, and are like the beasts of the field; as may be seen every day: and they can also be reproached for not having used wealth and leisure for that which gives them their greatest value.
