"One obvious palliative of the evils of democracy in its present form would be to encourage much more publicity and initiative on the part of civil servants. They ought to have the right, and, on occasion, the duty, to frame Bills in their own names, and set forth publicly the arguments in their favor."
Governance
"One should respect public opinion insofar as is necessary to avoid starvation and keep out of prison, but anything that goes beyond this is voluntary submission to an unnecessary tyranny."
Opinion
"Ever since Plato most philosophers have considered it part of their business to produce 'proofs' of immortality and the existence of God. They have found fault with the proofs of their predecessors - Saint Thomas rejected Saint Anselm's proofs, and Kant rejected Descartes' - but they have supplied new ones of their own. In order to make their proofs seem valid, they have had to falsify logic, to make mathematics mystical, and to pretend that deepseated prejudices were heaven-sent intuitions."
Philosophy
"War grows out of ordinary human nature."
Conflict
"Whoever wishes to become a philosopher must learn not to be frightened by absurdities."
Philosophy
"Boredom is... a vital problem for the moralist, since half the sins of mankind are caused by the fear of it."
Fear
"Many people when they fall in love look for a little haven of refuge from the world, where they can be sure of being admired when they are not admirable, and praised when they are not praiseworthy."
Love
"A life without adventure is likely to be unsatisfying, but a life in which adventure is allowed to take whatever form it will is sure to be short."
Life
"The importance of Man, which is the one indispensable dogma of the theologians, receives no support from a scientific view of the future of the solar system."
Science
"The good life is one inspired by love and guided by knowledge."

"Life is a wall, you have to climb it by pushing others to climb over and you will be pushed as well. Give a helping hand today."

"Do not keep control over household affairs. The one who keeps control has to wander around. The unusable money [torn notes, ruined coins] are offered as homage in prayer rituals! 'Live' as a 'friend' with the 'wife'. You are her 'friend' and she is your 'friend'."
