Text Quotes
I’m the best promoter in the world because I haven’t taken a day off work since I left the penitentiary, and because I have read all the great philosophers like St. Thomas Aquinine (Philosophers Quotes)

Philosophers, if they have much imagination, are apt to let it loose as well as other people, and in such cases are sometimes led to mistake a fancy for a fact. Geologists, in particular, have very frequently amused themselves in this way, and it is not a little amusing to follow them in their fancies and their waking dreams. Geology, indeed, in this view, may be called a romantic science (Philosophers Quotes)

Am I in love? Absolutely. I’m in love with ancient philosophers, foreign painters, classic authors, and musicians who have died long ago. I’m a passionate lover. I fawn over these people.

I am the ultimate idealistic lover (Philosophers Quotes)
Why are philosophers intent on forcing others to believe things? Is that a nice way to behave towards someone? (Philosophers Quotes)
