Arthur Schopenhauer Quotes
To live alone is the fate of all great souls. Treat a work of art like a prince. Let it speak to you first. We can come to look upon the deaths of our enemies with as much regret as we feel for those of our friends, namely, when we miss their existence as witnesses to our success. We forfeit three-quarters of ourselves in order to be like other people. Wealth is like sea-water; the more we drink, the thirstier we become; and the same is true of fame. Wicked thoughts and worthless efforts gradually set their mark on the face, especially the eyes. Will minus intellect constitutes vulgarity. Will power is to the mind like a strong blind man who carries on his shoulders a lame man who can see. With people of limited ability modesty is merely honesty. But with those who possess great talent it is hypocrisy.
