“A work of art is only a page torn from a life. It expresses this life, of course, but it could have very well not expressed it. No matter, for everything has the same value, whether it be writing The Possessed or drinking a cup of coffee.”
― Jean-Paul Sartre, Existentialism Is a Humanism

“A man is nothing but his mind; if that be out of order, all’s amiss, and if that be well, the rest is at ease.”
― Peter L. Bernstein, Against the Gods: The Remarkable Story of Risk

“It is vain to do with more what can be done with fewer.”
― Bertrand Russell, A History of Western Philosophy

“What is the difference between ‘knowledge’ and ‘opinion’? The man who has knowledge has knowledge of something, that is to say, of something that exists, for what does not exist is nothing. (This is reminiscent of Parmenides.) Thus knowledge is infallible, since it is logically impossible for it to be mistaken. But opinion can be mistaken. How can this be? Opinion cannot be of what is not, for that is impossible; nor of what is, for then it would be knowledge. Therefore opinion must be of what both is and is not.”
― Bertrand Russell, A History of Western Philosophy
