I am looking for an honest man.
I am a citizen of the world. The foundation of every state is the education of its youth. The most important thing is to be true to yourself. The only way to deal with the world is to be indifferent to it. I am looking for a human. I do not want to be a king, I want to be free. I have come to bury Plato, not to praise him. I have no need of a city. I would rather be mad than be a fool. The only good is knowledge and the only evil is ignorance. The wise man is indifferent to everything. It is not that I am mad, it is only that my head is different from yours. A man is rich in proportion to the number of things he can afford to let alone. I am not an Athenian or a Greek, but a citizen of the world. He has the most who is most content with the least. |
