Great men have always preferred women of the prostitute type  (Otto Weininger Quotes) A nation orients itself by its own geniuses, and derives from them its ideas of its own ideals, but the guiding star serves also as a light to other nations. As speech has been created by a few great men, the most extraordinary wisdom lies concealed in it, a wisdom which reveals itself to a few ardent explorers but which is usually overlooked by the stupid professional philologists.  (Otto Weininger Quotes) The great man of science, unless he is also a philosopher, ... deserves the title of genius as little as the man of action.  (Otto Weininger Quotes) It is not the fear of death which creates the desire for immortality, but the desire for immortality which causes the fear of death.  (Otto Weininger Quotes) The decision must be made between Judaism and Christianity, between business and culture, between male and female, between the race and the individual, between unworhtiness and worth, between the earthly and the higher life, between negation and God-like. Mankind has the choice to make. There are only two poles, and there is no middle way  (Otto Weininger Quotes) Among the notable things about fire is that it also requires oxygen to burn - exactly like its enemy, life. Thereby are life and flames so often compared  (Otto Weininger Quotes) The highest expression of all morality is: Be!  (Otto Weininger Quotes) Genius declares itself to be a kind of higher masculinity  (Otto Weininger Quotes) Logic and ethics are fundamentally the same, they are no more than duty to oneself  (Otto Weininger Quotes) To understand a man is really to be that man  (Otto Weininger Quotes) The genius which runs to madness is no longer genius  (Otto Weininger Quotes) A man is himself important precisely in proportion that all things seem important to him  (Otto Weininger Quotes) All genius is a conquering of chaos and mystery  (Otto Weininger Quotes) Fate determines many things, no matter how we struggle  (Otto Weininger Quotes) Everything evil is revenge  (Otto Weininger Quotes) Logic and ethics are fundamentally the same, they are no more than duty to oneself. They celebrate their union by the highest service of truth  (Otto Weininger Quotes) Woman, in short, has an unconscious life, man a conscious life, and the genius the most conscious life  (Otto Weininger Quotes) No men who really think deeply about women retain a high opinion of them; men either despise women or they have never thought seriously about them  (Otto Weininger Quotes) Every true, eternal problem is an equally true, eternal fault; every answer an atonement, every realisation an improvement  (Otto Weininger Quotes) Not only virtue, but also insight, not only sanctity but also wisdom, are the duties and tasks of mankind  (Otto Weininger Quotes) The deepest, the intelligible, part of the nature of man is that part which does not take refuge in causality, but which chooses in freedom the good or the bad  (Otto Weininger Quotes) The great man of science, unless he is also a philosopher,... Deserves the title of genius as little as the man of action  (Otto Weininger Quotes) The number of different aspects that the face of a man has assumed may be taken almost as a physiognomical measure of his... Genius  (Otto Weininger Quotes) If man were not free, then he could not conceive of causality at all, and could not form any concept of it. Insight into lawfulness is already freedom from it  (Otto Weininger Quotes) Man must act in such a way that the whole of his individuality lies in each moment  (Otto Weininger Quotes) The fixed stars signify the angel in man. That is why man orients himself by them; and that is why women have no appreciation for the starry sky; because they have no sense of the angel in man  (Otto Weininger Quotes) Universality is the distinguishing mark of genius. There is no such thing as a special genius, a genius for mathematics, or for music, or even for chess, but only a universal genius. The genius is a man who knows everything without having learned it  (Otto Weininger Quotes)
