Philosophy and Breaking Bad Quotes

“According to Aristotle, we often fail despite being able to recognize what we ought to do. We fail practically, through procrastination; we experience akrasia or a failure of self-control; we act impetuously, or are weak. 32 We give in to lesser impulses and do not engage in the moral behaviors we think we should.”
― Kevin S. Decker, Philosophy and Breaking Bad

“Why should non-believers, unafraid of losing heaven, be moral? Why shouldn’t we rob a bank, if we are smart enough to get away with it?”
― Kevin S. Decker, Philosophy and Breaking Bad
