Philosophy

"Accepting necessary conflicts for the sake of improving the lives of children is the only fundamental moral crusade that matters."

Ethics

"Knowledge is responsibility, which is why people resist knowledge."

Education

"You are constantly being trained to be heroic only in the service of your masters - only in slaughter and sacrifice and subjugation. But there is no heroism in serving your masters. Real heroism is questioning why you have masters at all.All these stories, all these fantasies, all these superpowers - are designed to steal heroism from you, to make it impossible, fantastical, remote, and unachievable - and make you useful to your masters (as a hit man, if needed). What is the opposite of this?The opposite of fantasy is philosophy. The opposite of mythology is integrity. And integrity is truth in action."

Philosophy

"When poverty declines, the need for government declines, which is why expecting government to solve poverty is like expecting a tobacco company to mount an aggressive anti-smoking campaign."

Politics

"The best way to destroy the decrepit is to build the glorious."

Success

Can profitability be achieved without theft? Can economic growth be achieved without the mass indebted enslavement and counterfeiting of the federal reserve?'."

Politics

"It is really exhausting to live in a dictatorship of 'Me', which is basically a tyranny of others."

Society

"All mental unhappiness is the avoidance of legitimate suffering."

Psychology

"If there's more that you can do, then do it. If there's not more that you can do, then be content with what you're doing. But if there is despair, the despair can only be that you can do more. Because when you're doing as much as you can do, you will not feel despair. Because despair is the gap between what you could be doing and what you are doing."
