Text Quotes
There is no way of learning to pray but by praying. No reasoned philosophy of prayer ever taught a soul to pray. We know not what we should pray for as we ought, and if prayer waits for understanding it will never begin. We discover by using. We learn by practice. Though a man should have all knowledge about prayer, and though he should understand all mysteries about prayer, unless he prays he will never learn to pray (Philosophy Quotes)

A positive philosophy turns into a positive attitude, which turns into positive actions, which turns into positive results, which turns into a positive lifestyle. A positive life (Philosophy Quotes)

Only lifeless mechanisms move along faultlessly straight lines and compass circles. In art the surest way to destroy is to canonize one given form and one philosophy: that which is canonized quickly dies of obesity, of entropy (Philosophy Quotes)
The purpose of a moral philosophy is not to look delightfully strange and counterintuitive or to provide employment to bioethicists. The purpose is to guide our choices toward life, health, beauty, happiness, fun, laughter, challenge, and learning (Philosophy Quotes)
My philosophy is to not be scared of anyone. If I play well, great; if I dont, I learn from the match and move on (Philosophy Quotes)
I remain convinced that obstinate addiction to ordinary language in our private thoughts is one of the main obstacles to progress in philosophy (Philosophy Quotes)
Let no one delay the study of philosophy while young nor weary of it when old (Philosophy Quotes)
Atheism is not a philosophy; it is not even a view of the world; it is simply a refusal to deny the obvious. Unfortunately, we live in a world in which the obvious is overlooked as a matter of principle (Philosophy Quotes)
Why are we here? Where do we come from? Traditionally, these are questions for philosophy, but philosophy is dead (Philosophy Quotes)
The philosophy of fasting calls upon us to know ourselves, to master ourselves, and to discipline ourselves the better to free ourselves. To fast is to identify our dependencies, and free ourselves from them (Philosophy Quotes)
Now if I do anything it is to tune souls instead of instruments. To harmonize people instead of notes. If there is anything in my philosophy, it is the law of harmony: that one must put oneself in harmony with oneself and with others (Philosophy Quotes)
It was my first meeting with a philosophy that confirmed my vague speculations and seemed at once logical and boundless (Philosophy Quotes)
Philosophy is the microscope of thought. Everything desires to flee from it, but nothing escapes it (Philosophy Quotes)
The moment philosophy supposes it can find a final and comprehensive solution, it ceases to be inquiry and becomes either apologetics or propaganda (Philosophy Quotes)
Philosophy is the sum total of all that you know and what you decide is valuable (Philosophy Quotes)
Philosophy is good advice, and no one gives good advice at the top of his lungs (Philosophy Quotes)
The arrogance that says analysing the relationship between reasons and causes is more important than writing a philosophy of shyness or sadness or friendship drives me nuts. I can’t accept that (Philosophy Quotes)
Get it into your head once and for all, my simple and very fainthearted fellow, that what fools call humanness is nothing but a weakness born of fear and egoism; that this chimerical virtue, enslaving only weak men, is unknown to those whose character is formed by stoicism, courage, and philosophy (Philosophy Quotes)
Where beauty is worshipped for beauty’s sake as a goddess, independent of and superior to morality and philosophy, the most horrible putrefaction is apt to set in. The lives of the aesthetes are the far from edifying commentary on the religion of beauty (Philosophy Quotes)
If what we regard as real depends on our theory, how can we make reality the basis of our philosophy?... But we cannot distinguish what is real about the universe without a theory... it makes no sense to ask if it corresponds to reality, because we do not know what reality is independent of a theory (Philosophy Quotes)
My philosophy is basically this. And this is something that I live by. And I always have. And I always will. Don’t ever, for any reason, do anything to anyone, for any reason, ever, no matter what. No matter... where. Or who, or who you are with, or where you are going, or... or where you’ve been... ever. For any reason, whatsoever (Philosophy Quotes)
There are more things twixt the vermiform appendix and nirvana than are dreamt of in thy philosophy horatio (Philosophy Quotes)
