Compassion is the basis of morality.
Life is a constant oscillation between the painful and the absurd. We forfeit three-fourths of ourselves in order to be like other people. The world is my representation. The more unintelligent a man is, the less mysterious existence seems to him. Happiness consists in frequent repetition of pleasure. Every man takes the limits of his own field of vision for the limits of the world. A man can do what he wants, but not want what he wants. The greatest of follies is to sacrifice health for any other kind of happiness. Talent hits a target no one else can hit; Genius hits a target no one else can see. |
